I suspect your code will have these 2 lines in it somewhere ... if isinstance(field, dict): return int(field['floatApprox']) using isinstance() or type() is generally frowned upon because it breaks duck typing, and makes it necessary for you to write more code every time somebody wants to feed

Actually, I've just realised, if I just test for numeric or try to cast to ints, this will break for string fields. As in, the intention is to call strip_floatAprox_wrapping on all the fields I'm parsing, and have it deal with the floatApprox dict wrapping, whether the contents are numbers or s
