srowen commented on issue #23389: [2.4] revert [SPARK-26021][SQL] replace minus 
zero with zero in Platform.putDouble/Float

   Right, worth discussing. Everything is a judgment call, but I'd like to 
understand the 'judgment'. The logic can't be: "we can't fix correctness issues 
because it means changing incorrect behavior to correct behavior". I assume the 
logic was: the behavior change causes more problems than fixing the 
correctness, which could be fine.
   
   My particular issue here is that this PR changed a few things, and I infer 
that one thing was an issue (NaN handling?) when the important correctness 
issue was elsewhere (0.0 vs -0.0). Wholesale reverting might be the wrong call.
