Well, to make a long story short, this is because I use Python through another software, Softimage|XSI, and by design a string is required to pass logic to on-the-fly GUIs. Since XSI implements 3 other languages (ActivePerl, VBScript and JScript), I suppose this was designed that way with JScript's .toString() in mind. The SDK documentation does indeed show only a JScript example.
