		Here's the code:
		However since Node 10 the V8 version has stopped using Flatten in all

		use the native runtime function `%FlattenString` without having to use

		Obviously, you could just use `Number` in your own code, and not use
		this module at all. However, this module serves the purpose of preventing
		misunderstandings in your code base (and potential removal of code that
		appears to be superfluous at first glance). Tests show that the additional

		One final note: calling flatstr too much can in fact negatively effect performance. For instance, don't call it every time you concat (if that
