- brainstorm settled four forks: Float FULL STACK in one iteration
(literal, IEEE f64 VM ops via u64 bitcast, @table column + WAL slot,
json fidelity — json.c's own comment names the hole: fractions are
malformed because "the language has no [float]"); IEEE-754 QUIET
semantics (division never traps, NaN flows; Int keeps DIV0; no
implicit mixing — float(i)/trunc(f) bridges); BYTES ships alongside
(binary carrier: multipart files, WS frames for 19, crypto digests;
Text goes back to meaning text); iteration 20 + spec before code
(.wob/WAL version bump earns a written spec)
- the rest of the missing-type survey recorded with reasons: Result/
Option expressible today (?T + payload unions), tuples covered by
records + doctrine, Decimal stays cents-until-a-workload, Char/
Unicode its own future story, Set/ADTs parked post-12, scalar
newtypes need the rejected `abstract`
- one indexed-storage deviation from raw IEEE spec'd loudly: a Float
index needs a total order — NaN sorts last
- board row, story-table row (seq 26), graph node (9+16 -> 20 -> 19;
crypto gate wants Bytes)
