> From my experience with other languages with duck typing,

 

Duck typing is a dynamic typing system that has nothing whatsoever to do with Fortran sequence types. Nothing. It is used in languages that don’t have strong typing; Fortran is a strongly typed language.

 

Fortran sequence types do not even use structural typing (which is the closest static equivalent to “duck typing”.
