Should `DecimalNum` return `decimal` instead of `int`?

Question

Should `DecimalNum` return `decimal` instead of `int`?

I noticed that DecimalNum is used for integer discovery. Is it intended? Should it not return a decimal like expected? Maybe by creating a IntegerNum parser if there isn't any for int discovery.

"Decimal" means "base ten".

I see. Still feel a little confusing.

Thank you for your answer Benjamin.
