What does this implement/fix?
This skips tests that convert MPArray to NumPy array. They passed before because
np.asarray(my_mparray)produces an object array with a single element, and simple operations (e.g. arithmetic) will work just fine with this object array because it performs the operations on each element. But I don't think that should be relied on; really,as_numpy=Trueand similar should raise for MPArrays due to precision loss.AI Generation Disclosure
I added
__array__to MPArray and had GPT-6 runarray-api-extratests with this change. We found those three failures and I told it to apply the skips similarly to GPU backends but citing precision loss as the reason.
