It means that 42 is a member of type Integer, as well as a member of type Number. So a member of two types.


If we would want to create an IntegerNumber type whose members are all the values that are members of Integer as well as Number, then the operator to use would be intersection (∩). So we could say: 42 is a member of type Integer ∩ Number. While also true, it's not what we wanted to convey. If a type "Integer ∩ Number" would exist, then 42 would be a member of Integer, Number, and Integer ∩ Number. So we're trying to make the reader aware of the full list of known types that a value is a member of.

Shall we update the wording to 42 is a member of the Integer and Number types?
