[issue20575] Type handling policy for the statistics module

[Steven D'Aprano]

Steven D'Aprano added the comment:

Thanks for the note Mark. I need to give Oscar's comments some careful and distraction-free thought, but off the top of my head I think Oscar's suggestion to require consistent types seems reasonable, except that mixing int with any other type should be allowed. Otherwise, I think that the coercion rules for mixed float/Decimal/Fraction rapidly become intractable.
