Your previous response didn't help your argument that they should be
convertible.
NULLs aren't convertible - and while you can argue for a better policy
this one isn't wrong - I don't actually need to make arguments supporting
that fact. The underlying point, though, is the ability for types to be
converted between one another is a property of the type itself and not any
specific value that type may take on.
In any case - if you wish to turn this into a discussion I'd recommend
putting together a more detailed argument and posting in on
pgsql-general(at)postgresql(dot)org
