Sorry, I simply do not see any advantage to this, other than making a one liner to pass data to a command or function. 

put "chart" into tType
put "100" into tSize
doSomething tType, tSize

What is the big deal? This can become:
put "chart" into tType ; put "100" into tSize ; doSomething tType, tSize

TADAAA! One liner. ;-)
