You could add something like ```haskell numValToFloat :: NumVal -> Float numValToFloat (Float f) = f numValToFloat (Integer i) = fromInteger i ``` to make all the other functions a...

The idea seems (probably) sound to me. But it might be a bit much new API for fairly little benefit (saving a single allocation). It’s also quite `Arc`-specific (without declaring...
