   > OK, I'm struggling to understand the requirement for the complexity here? 
   
   compatibility. I have been accused of over engineering already (which I 
don't take lightly :P) but the first attempt was obviously to simply use 
`Integer.valueOf()`. This creates the situation that two return options having 
the same identity (which is not compatible) - this failed multiple tests only 
indirectly related to the module - this is never a good sign.
   
   You can also easily come up with code where someone uses `==` if chains and 
would get a different result after such change.
   
   But I am open for suggestions of course.
