But.... Some mathematical operations require such operations.... Or at 
least they can use them, so it is odd that such a thing is not actually 
supported. Any method used to simulate this, where the result needs to be 
used as a real numeric value would take extra steps to 'build' the value 
from the array, string or whatever. This is imho quite silly.
