Why not? If the strings are digits that convert to numbers, it will
"work". Granted it isn't particularly robust, but:

  '2' < '4'

and

  2 < '4'

produce exactly the same result, read ECMA-262, 11.8.5.

Provided both convert to expected integers, it will (see above).

It will most likely cause the result to be NaN (ECMA-262 15.1.2.2
#6~8)
