It's a bit hard to tell what "intuitive" definition of "number" is in
a weakly typed language. According to ECMA-262 specs, an object
created with `new  Number` is not of type number but rather of type
object. Besides somewhat moot type definition in JS, adding
`instanceof` check introduces notorious cross-frame issues. Taking
care of those issues results in additional complexity (just for the
benefit of taking care of edge cases).
