>>>Is it an improper coercion?

The difference is, it's improper, not unneeded.
Maybe I should have said the form of the coersion was improper.
The form he was using was:
string myVariable
That doesn't work, even if it is needed
myVariable as string
That works even if it's not needed
So, in your example that would be the same as:
integer i
Which wouldn't work.
Off the top of my head I can only think of a one case where a value can be
coerced by placing the class first:
date "3/27/2007"
But that form doesn't work with most other classes
