Let’s be clear: the semantics of type int is well-defined. It denotes the set 
of integers over a specific finite range of values, and if this range is 
exceeded, exception Overflow is raised. If one’s requirements fit within that 
range of values then there is no rational reason to suffer a penalty in order 
to widen that range.
