Yes, indeed. I don't claim having a deep understanding myself, but up to now, everytime I thought something in IEE 754 was weird, it ended up being for good reasons.

I was wondering if we could bring the question to news:comp.arch newsgroup. They have the knowledge, and I know there are people from the IEEE 754 group lurking there. I only have read-only access, nevertheless.

Another relevant group could be news:comp.arch.arithmetic, but I am not familiar with it.
