"String conversion is automatically done in the scope of an expression where a string is
needed. This happens when using the echo() or print() functions, or when a variable is compared to a
string."
ord(), var_dump() and strlen() do not type cast to (string).
I get your point, but the "strange behavior" is not strange at all, it's how PHP
handles the string type in *context*.
