Given that permissive- will become the Visual C++ compiler's default mode of operation in the future, it is better to handle this now so future compiler upgrades will not cause issues. Problems here are very easily solved with explicit casts

Hmm, that sounds like an interesting prospect. char16_t might also be helpful here
