I always hated using is_numeric_string() because of the size and complexity
of it.

Removing this use case will make it smaller I hope, but probably not less
crazy :)

Hi,

Not many of us at AFUP expressed their opinion on this RFC (which is
probably a sign this feature isn't used much and won't be missed ^^).

Still, those who did all agree on removing this -- which means we would
be +1.
