--------------------------------------------------------^^^

It is not possible here for object_as_type() to issue an error()
report, but I had to go look at the code to check. (It would have
been a change in behaviour, otherwise). So, it doesn't really matter
what you pass to the quiet argument, but setting it to 1 _may_ help
the next reader. (No, I'm not convinced either; the only reason I
knew it had anything to do with error messages was because I had
just read the code ...) Hmm, dunno.
