"So why shouldn't ctype_alnum just accept all scalar values as
strings?"
As it is a validation function, it has to be strict.

I don't see the problem! PHP is a weak-typed language... what about
sleep() for instance?
void sleep ( _int_ $seconds )
<?php
sleep('5');
?>
So why shouldn't ctype_alnum just accept all scalar values as strings?

ctype_alnum ( string $text )
it takes a string not integer. Please see the manual for further
support questions.

Oops, the reproduce code should be:
<?php
$var = 42;
var_dump(ctype_alnum($var), ctype_alnum("$var"));
?>
