Research direction
Open the README documentation and find the description of originalPositionFor(generatedPosition). Update it to state that line and column must be numbers rather than strings, using the reported string-position example to clarify the requirement. Done means the README explicitly documents the expected numeric types.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
I was sending in strings instead of numbers to the originalPositionFor function. This works unless the strings aren't exactly in the mappings. E.g. originalPositionFor({line:"8", column:"10"}) would work if the sourcemap contained that exact entry, but if it instead contained line 8, column 8 and line 8 column 12, it wouldn't find the sourcemap.
Please mention that line and column MUST be number (not strings) in the readme documentation.
