Yes. I think decimal adds value, but I'm afraid my strongest reason for thinking so is that decimal is getting added to other languages (C#, C++, Python) and JavaScript will be perceived as "not as useful/ modern/fashionable" if it doesn't have it and therefore get used less and therefore have a less healthy community of users. I have other reasons too, but that's the strongest. drj _______________________________________________ Es-discuss mailing list Es-discuss@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
