I am with Steve on this one. Kinds clarify distinctions, but are not the 
final word---they are simply an alias and will almost always point to 
the "default integer", so simple code will work. But, safer, clear code 
can be written as well.
If we were talking about subtypes, it would be a more difficult 
discussion (compromise between ease and safety). This one seems to be a 
simple decision to me.
Best,
