Weak type hints the way Andrea proposed them in v0.1 actually did not accept "Apple" as an int (wiki.php.net/rfc/scalar_type_hints?rev=1420209410): "†Non-numeric strings not accepted. Numeric strings with trailing characters produce a notice." † applied to both int and float type hints in case of string inputs. Judging by both this and Anthony's message from a couple of days ago giving the same Apple example, perhaps v0.1 wasn't clearly understood.
