What has a "better match" to do with anything?  (int) matches the pattern (T)
perfectly - no conversion, implicit or explicit.  True, (T: int) is a more
specialised match, but that doesn't magically render the match with (T)
inexact.

That's different - 5 is an int, so it doesn't exactly match the pattern (short
x).
