Hi,

I think that the current implicit casts for assignment
(string-to-number + number-to-string)
were a bad idea, but isn't Konstantin Osipov correct?
That is, policy says that you cannot make this change at this time?

As for the earlier matter, implicit cast for comparison,
I mentioned that that too is a behaviour change, and I
suggested to Nikita Pettik that the proposal should be abandoned.
But I didn't change your mind by pointing at problems,
and I don't have anything new to say at the moment.
