That seems a little broad...
When a careful Ada programmer writes 'Integer', he's saying that he
understands the things about Integer that are implementation-defined
and that those things are "don't cares" for him in this instance. It's
not careless to say that and mean it.
Need I elaborate? (I don't feel like a lot of typing this afternoon :-)
