Current floating point is fixated on IEEE-754, which is already not enough for future usage scenarios.
Design considerations:
s/q NaN distinction should not be modeled
NaN and Inf may remain special values, but must follow our own spec everywhere (no minNumber confusions)
Floating-point types should be product types
Floating-point environment functions that are independent of rounding (ldexp, frexp, ...) should be the minimal set of required interpretation functions
We should consider a binary_float ancestor type
