There is a spelling mistake in the following section of the new draft (Page 215)
> clarification of Number.MIN_Value for Arm processors (that don;t support
> denormalized numbers)
It should reference IEEE 754, not IEEE 764.
Also, this new section changes the semantics of arithmetic and numbers in
Javascript, is this actually the intention?
It is correct that a lot of processors do not implement denormals in hardware,
but is it worth breaking backwards compatibility over? It also seems to be in
contradiction with 8.5 (The Number Type), which defines which values a Number
is allowed to have.
