No entirely true. Only arithmetic operators no longer do string to number conversion. I too assumed this meant no more string to number conversions, but I checked the code. Turns out that the following is still valid (ignoring the silly quotes from my email client):
for i = “1”, “10”, “2” do print(i) end
