Postgres doesn't seem to enforce array dimensions

What's up with Postgres and array dimensions? The table definition
doesn't even store how many dimensions the array should be.

[local]:playpen=> create table arrtest(
playpen(> id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
playpen(> arrone int[],
playpen(> arrtwo int[][]
playpen(> );
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence "arrtest_id_seq" for
serial column "arrtest.id"
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE / PRIMARY KEY will create implicit index
"arrtest_pkey" for table "arrtest"
