You are right, I didn't need to do the cast - was just transcribing some C# code that did that for some reason.
However, it is still a good question (instead of upcasting, think of downcasting), and the answer isn't out there that I could find.

There is nothing tricky about the cast, it's a straightforward cast to a base type. How can I do this in IP?
