Hi Hyukjin, Thanks for asking.
For 1 the change is almost always better. For 2 it depends on the context. In general if the type is not obvious, it helps readability to explicitly declare them. For 3 again it depends on context. So while it is a good idea to change 1 to reflect a more consistent code base (and maybe we should codify it), it is almost always a bad idea to change 2 and 3 just for the sake of changing them.
