So, you want stuff like isFloatingPoint and isNumeric to return true for a 
user-defined struct? That pretty much defeats their purpose if that happens. 
They're checking for exact matches, not implicit conversions, and a function 
intended to work explicitly with float isn't necessarily going to work with 
your struct, so it needs isFloatingPoint to be false for something that isn't 
truly a built-in floating point type.
