Hm, playing devil’s advocate, I think it is because the minus has not been defined as a string operation (e.g. it could pop the last char), so it defaults to the mathematical operation and converts both inputs into ints.
The first is assumed to be a concat because one of the parcels is a string…
It’s just doing a lot of stuff for you that it shouldn’t be in first place 🤭
This is too stupid so I had to check.
Fuck me.

Yup. It’s completely inconsistent in its interpretation of the + operator.
pro tip:
"ba" + 0/0 + "a"This has got to be baNaNa
