Luke Cwik commented on BEAM-8437:
---------------------------------
The JSON specification for number types has unlimited precision but many
implementations impose limits (whether it is some arbitrary limit or follow a
specific standard like IEEE 754). I decided to use string since it would
prevent the YAML/JSON parser from mangling the actual value and it would be
upto the test code to ensure the string -> IEEE 754 double conversion is exact.
> Consider using native doubles in standard_coders_test.yaml
