fs.writeFile behaviour not consistent with fs.write functions.

[sciolist]

the write and writeSync methods both convert nonbuffer data to be written to a string when called, while writeFile and writeFileSync do not (the data is instead passed directly to the buffer constructor.) It seems inconsistent that

fs.write(f, 1234, ...);

should produce different results than

fs.writeFile("out", 1234, ...);

seeing as how the created buffer from inside the function is never accessible to the caller.
