dear guys,
in a way you are talking this point to death,
this issue is not about powers of two, usually they have
few problems in binary datatypes, but about powers of 10!
it's important to have them exact ( as good as possible )
at integral powers of ten,
and regarding monotonity it's surely better to smoothe the
nearby values to the exact values than the other way.
Note, we need 2! results changed for binary64's ( bin80's
are worse ) and there are no monotonity issues around them.
