The issues with `*(int)*&` are that - It is quite confusing (especially for C++ beginners) - In this case, it is a strict aliasing violation A solution can therefore be to replace it with `memcpy` _This PR comes after a question I asked on [StackOverflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68699806/strange-c-type-casting)_
