The first element of an array is located at the address of an array. Even if the pointer-to-array and pointer-to-element types have different size and representation, they point to the same place. The resulting pointer-to-void converted values must point to that place, and have the same type.
This relationship is also true between a pointer to a struct and a pointer to the first element. And also among pointers to the elements of a union.
