I'm betting that AppleScript is pointing to a 32 bit integer where the
9 is stored and whatever 32 bit word happens to follow. The 64 bit
concatenation is being treated as a float.
I do not know what is happening here. I believe there are leakages
going on.
First time I run the script, my number was published. (1)
I quit SE and a bunch of other processes, restarted SE and run the same
script. Got different number. Consistent but different.(2)
Quit SE, and only SE, and restarted SE run the same script got the same
numer as (2) above. (3)
This (3) seems to suggest that there is something going on in terms of
memory.
But there seems to be a major problem in coercions.
If you try to coerce the error to a number (I do not really know how to
put this!), using an operation it gets on with the coercion, the error
becoming a number. If you use "as number" it errors as expected.
