.. effortless casting could be a negative depending on who ya ask.

I'm of the opinion that it's a positive. Often I use "string" + number to access HTML elements and it just works. I can even use it to concatenate arrays.

Meanwhile, when I try to debug in C++ with cout statements, half the time it doesn't even do anything even though I use std::to_string().
