I suppose so, but currently I consider the API not to make guarantees
about what happens if you pass in something other than specified as
valid input. I'm not sure what level of precision is usual at this
point, but I think this is sufficient for now.

I'm sure we will pay attention to this (as we have been doing, both
while optimizing prematurely and for other reasons).
