Probably because when all our favorite languages were created, 99% of data
was in files, because people had less RAM.

There is a program that comes with Linux called "file" which determines the
type of data in a file, regardless of file name, extension, etc.  If you can
dig through that source code, maybe it'll help in your quest.
