While coding today, I was a little surprised to discover that the div operator doesn't coerce its arguments to integers. So for example, the expressions 25 div '5' and pi div 5 raise errors. I checked the Operators doc page and saw that, sure enough, div (and mod, I found) accept only actual Ints. Of all numeric operators at the multiplicative and additive levels of precedence, they're alone in that respect.
Is there a particular reason these two operators are so restrictive?
