C++ implicit cast from float or double to int creates a breach in inspector typed API.
For example one can mistakenly have protocol attribute type "int" while actual value type in C++ is "float". The value will be silently truncated to integer without a warning.
Make sure that passing float or double to inspector typed API won't compile.
