So what should be the value of `"false" == true`?

  undefined or TypeError would be suitable.

    So shall we require checking for matching type of first? It doesn't seem like an improvement to me.

      Should a list ever equal seven? Should a float equal a socket? Some comparisons just don't make sense.

          Even if the result makes some kind of sense, 99% of the time it will be an error in programming and therefore not be useful or safe to continue.
