1st argument

2nd argument

When you say ‘5 < nil’ you get an error ‘attempt to compare number with nil’
However, when you say ‘5 < box.NULL’ you get attempt to compare number
with ‘void *’.

So I tried to be consistent. Kind of. And just leave the message as it is.
We can say ‘attempt to compare decimal with box.NULL`
or with `void *` if you wish.
