I think it needs to change as a matter of API consistency, not a matter of
behavior. Our "get" functions are dinstinguished from our "to" functions in
that they are quicker/simpler, but they fail if you try to "get" a type from a
value that is not of that type. In fact, getNumber is documented as " NaN if
not a number."

So we should change the getNumber caller, too. I see now that's probably best
as a separate patch, though.
