    received_type and input_type are both strings of the form "T1,T2,...".

      this will return True. But if received_type is "STRING,INT" and input_type is
      "INT", this will return False.

    If strict is False, the input_type must have overlap with the received_type.
      For example, if received_type is "STRING,BOOLEAN" and input_type is "STRING,INT",
