Of course you can play around:

     uint  positive_one = 1;
     short minus_one = -1;
     uint max_int = 4294967295;

     writeln(minus_one > positive_one); // true
     writeln(minus_one == max_int); // true

Because promotion and implicit casting. But like I said this is 
sometimes confusion, and on the OP example it's worth.
