That's precisely why we have boxes. Loose typing, the wave of the future!

The semantics are consistent: the whole left argument is catented to the whole
right argument, then pp is applied between the items of the result. That is,
A is treated precisely the same as the result of, say 2 pp A or 4 pp 3 pp 2
pp A .
The only thing "special" about A is that it's an initial condition.
