We're talking about scripting so there is no need for non-checked
arrays.  I don't see why lower bound <>0 makes more variants: Ada and
Haskell support that for ordinary arrays.  Other languages don't support
it, suggesting that it's not so useful most of the time.  Of somewhat
more relevance for scripting is dictionaries as first-class values.  For
that, native string values and GC or refcounting help a lot.
