While I love how simple this is, and it greatly conveys the idea. There
are problems. Computers don't do floating point the way humans think.
The idea is right, the example, not so much in general

The good news is that SPDIF and all PCM audio uses integers, not
floating point, so the essence of what John is saying is true, even if
the details are not.
