No. Something as simple as sqrt(2) must work at all costs, period. A

that adds a bunch of silly complications to something this simple is
fundamentally
broken. I don't remember your post on implicit preferred conversions,
but IMHO
implicit conversions of integer to double is a no-brainer. Requiring
something
this simple to be explicit is Java/Pascal-like overkill on explicitness.
Pascal (FreePascal 2.4.0) allows sqrt(2) just fine.
