Yeah but what do you mean by "treat like a number"??

If you type "1 ljsbf" you don't expect it to be transformed into "1", do you?
(it doesn't happen)

If you type "lsdls" you don't expect it to become "0", do you?
(it doesn't happen)

So why should "1+" become 1, and even more absurd, why should "1-" become -1?


In other words, Calc usually "assumes you are entering numbers" **unless** you
enter something that cannot be interpreted as a number.

In what notation is "1+" a representation of 1 as a number, and "1-" a
representation of -1 as a number?

Your argument is valid for an input like "1e2" (which one may enter with the
intention of entering text but is also 100 in exponential notation), but "1-"
is not a number in any way, I don't see how anybody could expect it to be
interpreted as -1.
