This is for discussion of the question [Why is the sum of an int and a float an int?](https://stackoverflow.com/q/45416000/2371524) After several rounds of closing and reopening it without any clear consensus in sight, I think this should be put for discussion. There are some aspects to discuss, please add your answers on them:

* Is this a good or a bad question?
* What makes this a good/bad question?
* Should this question be closed and, if so, what's the appropriate close reason?
* Which tags are appropriate for the question?
* Should the asker gain reputation from this question?
* Should the answerer gain reputation from their answer?
