So you shouldn't be able to cast a value to a pointer. The reverse,
casting a pointer to a value, makes sense in my opinion: you may want
to print the pointer value in a debug output of some sort. There's
nothing unsafe with that so it should be allowed.

These are allowed in safe functions.

Just checking, this is allowed:

@safe void crash_maybe() {
   int* p = cast(int*)uniform(size_t.min, size_t.max);
   *p = 14;
}

right?

no the opposite is safe (pointer -> size_t) but there is no way size_t- >pointer can be safe...
