I'm trying to find the quote your talking about, but I just see a comparison between stdlib, scikit-learn, and nipy. And for the import stats it is just what was on github in 2014. I think that it is safe to say that most code is not publicly available on github. Though regardless of usage, I think that people doing stuff that needs floats are more likely to understand why they need them, and have the ability to use them explicitly without much issue. By using python, and most other high level languages, we're already making sacrifices to make things easier to use and understand, and in Python specifically we're told that explicit is better than implicit, except for this.
