Real does not deserialize

[heyx3]

Julia Version: 1.7.2.

I see that Real is supposed to be StructTypes.NumberType(), but it can't actually deserialize:

julia> JSON3.read("456", Real)
ERROR: ArgumentError: invalid JSON at byte position 1 while parsing type Real: ExpectedOpeningObjectChar
456
julia> JSON3.read("456", Union{Integer, AbstractFloat})
456.0

Can you share what version of JSON3/StructTypes you have? I'm not seeing the same problem:

julia> using JSON3

julia> JSON3.read("456", Real)
456.0

StructTypes v1.8.1

JSON3 v1.9.2

Here's an exact printout of my session:
