Three-way votes for this type of issue are rather nightmarish. =
Originally, this RFC was going to have at least three separate options =
in the vote, but I gave up on that because of the sheer complexity. =
Whatever result you=E2=80=99d get wouldn=E2=80=99t be very fair and the =
margins wouldn=E2=80=99t make sense.

If someone wants to make a separate RFC later for strict types or weak =
types or whatever, nothing would stop them.

Thanks.
