Probably because they have a wider range than standard 32 bit 
integers and because they are reasonably used in an expression with 
other double operands.
The implied question is whether there should be Integer versions of 
them now that RB gives warnings about numeric conversions. I've 
created my own conversion methods that internally use CType to return 
integer values so that I can round the result of a double expression 
and assign it to an integer without generating a conversion warning 
message.
