Yes. Similarly, if you design something with total disregard to optimization, it will likely need optimization. YAGNI is a prediction, not a rule. Just like pr

Yes. Similarly, if you design something with total disregard to optimization, it will likely need optimization. YAGNI is a prediction, not a rule. Just like premature optimization, alternatives to floating point - or using longer floating point types - have real costs, which must be balanced against the needed precision.
