Yes, you are right, looks like there is no need for the “unknown” type. 
Maybe it’s better to change this argument as the following:

+   3rd argument IS_SIZE_NUM_ELEMENTS: TRUE if the size referenced by the REF_TO_SIZE represents
+         the number of the elements of the object type; otherwise, it’s the number of bytes.

Thanks.
