“Real.new.Num" infiniloops because:

   .Num calls .Bridge.Num
   .Bridge calls .Num

This is the ground cause of “say Real.new” infinilooping, because:

   .gist calls .Str
   .Str calls .Bridge (to call .Str again, but never gets there because:)
   .Bridge calls .Num
   .Num calls .Bridge

Since I never understood the use of .Bridge in these parts of the setting, I’m 
hoping that someone else with some more background in this part of the code 
that is mostly from 2011/2012, and this predates my involvement.


Yary++ for reporting, BenGoldberg++ for following up.
