The description of number->string in section 11.7.4.4 says: "If a precision is specified, then the representations of the inexact real components of the result, unless they are infinite or NaN, specify an explicit <mantissa width> p, and p is the least p ≥ precision for which the above expression [read-write invariance] is true."
Once we agree (!) what |p means, can someone point me to an algorithm to calculate "the least p ≥ precision" for which read-write invariance is true?
