I think it's still consistent because the element type is not int in the 
case of multi-dimensional arrays. The following makes sense to me but I 
haven't profiled it. Otherwise, kinke's solution is perfectly fine in a 
system programming language. ;)

     int[3] a;
     a[] = 1;
     a[][] = 1;  // Same effect

     int[3][4] b;
     b[] = [1, 1, 1];
     b[][] = [1, 1, 1];  // Same effect
