Required_if not working with numbers

[nehanegi220682]

What version of this package are you using?
latest

What operating system, Node.js, and npm version?
node v20 npm v9

What happened?
required_if is unable to handle numeric values, so if i do
required_if:age,16
when i send {age: 16} it does not pass, but when i do {age: "16"} it passes.

What did you expect to happen?
It should pass with {age: 16} where 16 is number and not string
