Or else I am expressing myself badly and you are missing something
of my point.

Let's take one little such toy.  A calculator. One that does undisguised
Python numerics - 3/4 = 0, 3.0/4 = .75.

But let's give them 2 different names.  One is called the Python
Calculator and the other the Python Numeric Type Calculator.

One is sadly broken and the other works perfectly - but they are
exactly the same little toy.

If you see my wonderfully made little point.
