I don't know about others but writing larger numbers in exponential
format like 1e3 is common in my code. For Lua 5.3, those are always
floats. This has interesting consequences:
for i = 1, 1e3 do
print(i) --> always int
end
for i = 1e3, 1, -1 do
print(i) --> always float
end
This is probably not a big deal since I could use 10^2 instead.
