for example,
postgres=# select int2'1' + int8'1';
ERROR: operator is not unique: smallint + bigint
LINE 1: select int2'1' + int8'1';

HINT: Could not choose a best candidate operator. You may need to add

there are int4 + int8 and int8 + int8, but no int2 + int8, so two operators
available, they are int4 + int8 and int8 + int8,
system can't choose a best candidate operator.
