Sounds reasonable

Associative arrays with integer key types are valid, changing the inferred type
of the literal to an integer array is a breaking change.

This is trying to be clever, when the rule should be simple. It would be
surprising when adding a key to an existing associative array suddenly turns it
into an integer array or vice versa.
