Can you elaborate on that? I don't follow.
Also infix:</> needs a lazy item that is collapsed
into Int, Num or Rat depending on the constraint of the container it
ends up in eventually. An Any gets the Rat. Hmm, and a Str perhaps the
two constituting Ints as fraction put into lowest terms?
I don't think you need something that fancy. If / produces a Rat, then
subsequent assignment coerces the value to a Num, you get the correct
result because Rat is exact. Likewise converting to Int would give the
same result as int division would have in the first place. And
stringifying produces a Str.
