This method on typed arrays

Makes it sense or not?

TypedArrays are used to store binary-like data, it is not representing a list of items in the thinking model so I think it is strange to support this on those.

@Jack-Works they are just optimized for numbers arrays. Sometimes we have arrays of numbers and we should get unique values from those arrays. I think that makes no sense to limit this possibility.

IIRC typed arrays don't have .map, .filter etc, maybe that reason applies here

They have those methods.

Oh so we should match them
