fix: convert compatible types

[deelawn]

Closes #2006.

This PR ensures that the types returned or assigned are converted the the type that is expected.

I don't 100% understand the reason for excluding native and uverse types from being considered for conversion. If anyone has an example that would break this, please include it in a comment.
