I'm writing a custom formatter that will be used in the context of a
scientific application and which will take as input a potentially very
precise decimal. The formatter will do a number of manipulations but in
general I don't want to lose precision.
In practice, of course, merely using NSDecimal greatly reduces the
available precision, so my question is not of the "I need this to work"
category but rather of the "should I file a bug on this in case someone
else encounters this behavior and really does need this to work" category.
(At the very least, I feel that the documentation should note if there
are restrictions on input beyond what is dictated by data type.)
