Issue #10654 has been reported by Kyle Decot.

----------------------------------------
Bug #10654: Nil -> Rational Inconsistency
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/10654

* Author: Kyle Decot
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: 
* Category: core
* Target version: current: 2.2.0
* ruby -v: ruby 2.1.5p273 (2014-11-13 revision 48405) [x86_64-darwin14.0]
* Backport: 2.0.0: UNKNOWN, 2.1: UNKNOWN, 2.2: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
I'm not sure if this is a bug or not but there seems to be some inconsistency in creating a rational from nil.

Rational(nil) # => TypeError: can't convert nil into Rational
nil.to_r # => (1/0)

I would think that the latter would produce a TypeError.

Thoughts?
