Yea, I'm in favor of this. I don't think the 'u' in there would benefit us, and the cast from signed to unsigned is well defined, so it's safe to call the functions with signed input. > Yeah, I didn't understand why anything else would be on the table. Because it sounds a bit weird for a function with just 'int' in the name to take unsigned ints as a parameter? I don't think that's enough justification to rename everything, but it's not completely crazy either. > We already changed their arg types for 11, no? No, not really. We added new functions.
