If you simply specify a dummy MacType, it won't work if the file ends up without an extension, because you didn't specify a MacType that matched.

But all files, Sven and I speak about, must have by definition a file extension.

No, they don't. In the Finder, select the extension, and press Delete. It doesn't have one anymore. If the file has a MacType, it'll still be associated with the file, and can still be used to help the OS figure out what to use to open the file with.
