Thanks Dohyeon! 🙏

Appreciate you looking into this issue

While this is certainly a way forward, think we need to look more carefully at the casting implications for different type combinations and make sure we are handling them sensibly

Should add there can remain overflow issues, which we need to be cognizant of and handle appropriately. Ideally by erroring as opposed to silently writing incorrect data

[jakirkham]

Not sure we want to do this generally. Instead would recommend checking whether casting is reasonable for the given types using np.can_cast or similar. Then either allow the appropriate casting or accept there will be an intermediate with a copy

Should add we need to look at both cases in this branch (bool and other) and handle each of them appropriately

We should double check decode as well
