gollark: Before 5.3, all Lua values are in fact floats.

gollark: They are indeed both floats. However, floats can look identical when displayed (because they're not always displayed to the maximum precision or something) yet contain different values.

gollark: Your compiler probably has an option to provide extra warnings, which is often useful when debugging strange confusing things.

gollark: Bitwise NOT flips all the bits, logical NOT just does true → false and vice versa.
