Agreed. If conversion can occur without data loss (that is, if the value being assigned is == the value that actually IS assigned) then no error should occur.
So int $a = "1"; // no error. 1 == "1" so who cares? int $a = 'House'; // error 0 != 'House', so this is a problem. Again, errors should only raise if the final value != source value.
