If that's true, who worries about the good of the language's users?

Perhaps making int/int => float makes the language better.  [I don't
personally think so, but it's a matter of taste.]  However, it does hurt at
least some of the existing group of users.  How many and how bad is up for
debate.

I think that not allowing ints and floats to be mixed would make it a better
lanauge, but that would probably hurt even more users.
