> Did anyone know that "6. " is equal to "6."???

It’s somewhat similar to 
        value(“h “) is equal to value(“h”), 
while 
        “h “ is not equal to “h”.

I’m not disturbed but appreciative that the engine tries to convert both sides 
to numbers when doing a comparison. Just must remember that and use more 
“string-y” ways to compare strings as only strings.
For example other functions can reveal the strings “6. “ and “6.” are not the 
same string, such as length(“6. “) is not equal to length( “6.”).
