But if we only go from "faithfully rounded" to "almost always correctly 
rounded", it seems to me that we're still a couple of millimetres away from 
that goal line. It wouldn't be hard to go for _always_ correctly rounded and 
actually get it over.

I'm confused: big enough for what? I was thinking of the use-case where the 
inputs are all floats, in which case an Emax of 999 and an Emin of -999 would 
already be more than big enough.
