Except that, with a list, route only works on the first element; and [unpack] won't accept a float as a symbol or a symbol as a float. One solution would be to use 'noop' in place of symbols and '-1' or any number you're not likely to need in place of numbers. Or heck, keep numbers and symbols in different textfiles...
