Yep, that's <float><int><float> and doesn't typecheck since you missed it too, my point is made :)

Yeah. Honestly it's a quirk, but I prefer quirks going this way than the other way (like universal compare). That said, all languages have warts. And that's the best kind of warts, the one that is explicit and happens at compile-time.

Good point. And to be honest, OCaml was the first language I used to have insanely fast compile times - and a REPL!
