Well, that would leave a function whose return type depends on the value of one of the arguments, which I find very ugly. I don't know why you think rounding an int to X (X>0) digits after the decimal point should return a float -- it's not like the int has any digits behind the point, so nothing is gained. Why would it be a lie?
