Comment:

 I've also run into this with PHPStan scanning. I decided to use a mixture
 of casting to string and using more appropriate escaping functions such as
 `intval()`, `absint()`, and `floatval()`. I think widening the accepted
 types for the escaping functions papers over the real issue which is
 outputting values of an unknown type.
