I wonder what is the use case of these 80 bits numbers apart from what
is described as keeping intermediate results when performing
exponentiation on doubles ?
In AIFF audio files, the sample rate is stored in the Common Chunk as an
80-bit

Right - no proposal to change float64 because it's not ambiguous - it
is both binary64 IEEE floating point format and 64 bit width.
All right ! Focusing the renaming only on those extended precision
float types makes sense.
The confusion here is

Luckily I was in fact using longdouble in the live code,
I had never exotic floating point precision, so thanks for your post
which made me take a look at docstring and documentation.
If I got it right from the docstring, 'np.longdouble',

Except float96 is actually 80 bits. (Usually?) Plus

That's correct. They are both extended precision (80 bits), but

Hi,
I was gaily using np.longlong for casting to the highest available
float type when I noticed this:
In [4]: np.array([2.1], dtype=np.longlong)
Out[4]: array([2], dtype=int64)
whereas:
In [5]: np.array([2.1], dtype=np.float128)
Out[5]: array([ 2.1], dtype=float128)
This on OSX snow leopard
