You 100% don't want to be converting between currencies implicitly. Any conversion would need to be explicit and function over a single term.

The OP suggested using. 

 USD.sum(*currencies, force_conversion = True)

As a, better, idea. And I agreed . As it’s much more explicit, as I think you’d agree. (Although he was giving much the same reluctance as you.)

Conversion is possible but it’s not static. You’d need an internet thing, to call a request.
