Comment:

 [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/register_post_type/#parameters
 According to the docs], `show_in_menu` only accepts `bool` or `string`.
 `int` values are not accepted and I can't see a reason of why they should
 be accepted.

 If you can provide an use case on where switch to `int` could be valuable,
 maybe this could be reconsidered, but just asking to change for the sake
 of changing it its not a great idea.

 I'm closing this as `invalid`. Feel free to reopen it, if you happen to
 have a use case to better showcase the need of this improvement
