Worth noting that if you add the declare(strict_types=1) (since PHP 7.0.0) declaration at the top of your PHP script, integers wont coerce with floats and instead will throw an error as expected.
<?php// https://repl.it/repls/OpenRowdyTrialsdeclare(strict_types=1);functiona(int$b){return$b;}var_dump(a(1.1));// PHP Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: Argument 1 passed to a() must be of the type integer, float given

Good to know, thanks! Interesting it isn't the default behaviour though but I assume this can be set in the .ini or elsewhere to be defaulted. I will look into that but either way, thanks for sharing!
