Alright, let's use a non-programming example. Suppose you're typing a
dossier in Microsoft Word. You need to highlight an specific paragraph so
select the text and press the "bold" toolbar button. And then you get a
message that says "Application performed an illegal operation and will be
shut down" and Word crashes. Does it mean there's something wrong in using
bold fonts in documents? Obviously not!

I thought you used word "object" in PHP context. Never mind, whatever an
object is for you, it doesn't make any sense to cast it to integer. It's
like checking whether a JPEG picture is greater or equal than zero, it's
total nonsense.
