The thing is, this isn't a new match level. Rather than the enum 
implicitly casting to its literal (I'm hoping I'm using the 
correct word here) I'm proposing it implicitly cast to its typed 
literal (Instead of A.a implicitly converting to 0, it converts 
to int(0)). This would mean it would match the int since its a 
direct match.
