[Numpy-discussion] Sign of NaN

One of the usecases that has sneaked in during the last few numpy versions
is that object arrays contain numerical arrays where the shapes don't add
up to a rectangular array.


I think that's the wrong way to dve that problem -- we really should have a
"proper" ragged array implementation. But is is the easiest way at this
point.

For this, and other use-cases, special casing Numpy arrays stored in object
arrays does make sense:

"If this is s a Numpy array, pass the operation through."

-CHB


In those cases being able to apply numerical operations might be useful.

But I'm +0 since I don't work with object arrays.
