I've reconsidered.
You're 100% correct.

Ugh, sounds like competing priorities.
* maintain type consistency
* minimize storage (= current version, since 3.0.0)
* maximize utility for large lambda (= proposed change)
* keep user interface, and code, simple (e.g., it would be easy enough
to add a switch that provided user contro

I have been agreeing (with Spencer, IIUC) on this for a long
time (~ 3 yrs, or more?), namely that I've come to see it as a
"design bug" that rpois() {and similar} must return return typeof() "i
As others have pointed out, this is expected behaviour. Let me get on that
