Probably more like the old precision problem. It ecists in C/C++ too and it's just how fliats and ints work.

I dont think comparisons should be doing type conversion if i compare a float to an int i want it to say false cos types are different.

Idiots downvoting you (c/technology...) but this how e.g. Haskell and rust handle that, and probably most strongly typed languages

Yeah i think python needs stronger type enforcement i do like how they have been improving type hinting tho really helps with preventing bugs
