> I'd personally prefer that floats not be accepted; I think this was a misfeature of `factorial` that we shouldn't compound. OK; I only went with that because I assumed there were Good Reasons© that factorial did it, but if rejecting integral floats isn't going to be a controversial move I'm also in favor of it. Updating the PR momentarily to check that binomial rejects floats.
