From the name, I don't understand what this function would do. Do I pass in an integer, and get a boolean telling me if it's safe? Safe for what? Do I pass in some other value and get a boolean if it's safe to convert to an integer? What value exactly, and safe in what way? That tells me two things: 1) You need to flesh out your proposal to be explicit about *what* it would do, as well as why. 2) The function needs a better name, to avoid confusion over what "safe" means.
