The whole debate went over my head of a simple programming language
user, but perhaps it would be enlightening to have a few examples. For
instance:

- in C++, is it possible to do arithmetic with the (or a) boolean
type, or convert silently from/to integer ?
- in C++, is it possible to assign a value of a type enum1 to a
variable of type enum2, or is it possible to do any mix or arithmetic
without something like enum1'Pos ?

Sorry, I don't have the answer (my last experience with C++ was 15
years ago, linked to some math exercise...). Any help ?
