Returning bool in this case will make it impossible to respond with a
meaningful error message. Which of the provided arguments !is_int()?

Instead, I would go with f.Ex.:

$numbers = array(...$numbers);
$result = array_filter($numbers, "is_int")

and compare the arrays. Since the array keys are preserved, it's easy to
find out, which argument !is_int().


Finally, the imho best solution would still be introducing optional scalar
type hinting. But that is another topic and shouldn't be discussed here.
