Plus this is already documented:
The operations behave like C++ valarrays. Addition is defined as the
addition of the corresponding elements of the operands.

So if one reads the documentation, vector float | vector float would
mean take each element and ior it with the element in the other vector
so then you have float | float which is invalid.
