Yes, `canLosslesslyBitCastTo` doesn't allow cast between `i16` and `bfloat`, but it does between two vectors, as long as their sizes are the same.
> A cast between float and int sounds like "re-interpretation of the bits" to me. Though the function already allows it if it's a vector of int/float.
Yeah. I was reluctant to allow it in `canLosslesslyBitCastTo` also because of that. Since it allows vector conversion, it already breaks the purpose.
