Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org> added the comment:

Well, that would leave a function whose return *type* depends on the
*value* of one of the arguments, which I find very ugly.

I don't know why you think rounding an int to X (X>0) digits after the
decimal point should return a float -- it's not like the int has any
digits behind the point, so nothing is gained. Why would it be a lie?
