M0008.02_Exception_Handling YES
My vote is YES.
Note: I haven't had the time to read all the discussions yet. But
the end of 3.4 (about a possible hardware representation of bare
decorations by a pair of FP numbers, one or two of which being a
NaN) is a bit surprising. This representation is fine (though more
or less a hack) if the goal is to have a common type allowing to
represent a bare interval and a bare decoration at the same time,
but this doesn't seem to be really useful: if one wants to deal
with decorated intervals without much restriction, one would then
need a tuple of 4 FP numbers, which would be inefficient...
