  1. in C you can absolutely put an array inside an int variable, i can say more, you can put an int array inside a char variable, JavaScript is dynamically typed but doesn’t allow types to collide without explicit conversion, so you can never force the data of an array to become something else, every operator that converts types in Javascript has a well established result that is type safe, the problem of javascript is that those established conversion don’t always make sense, and that confuses people, but you could never interpret a type of data as it was of a different type (like you can in C).
    for example in C you can define a char variable, assign an integer value to it and when you try to print it it will implicitly interpret that value as a character, that is as type unsafe as you can be, maybe only assembly or machine code can be more type unsafe than this.
