And can we please stop using word "hinting"?
We can call it type conversion, typecasting, type coercion, etc.

But I don't see how there's any hinting involved.
Is this were things have drifted from the original working base? I was under the
impression that the idea was to give developers a nudge as to what type of
parameter was required ( so documentation did the job for me ) rather than
forcing a conversion when the wrong type was supplied?
Which particular problem is being worked on?
