Receiver and arguments, lexically (the dot), are float BUT

      are written as decimal number (zero, one, one tenth).

      
      I think that in a text you can ONLY write "decimal" numbers or (in
      bases other than 10 [or with factors other than 2^x and 5 ?]), at
      worst, repeating decimals

      (eg 0,1 in base 3 = 1/3 ~ 0.333...), that are ultimately
      fractions.

      
      So, may be, if the receiver or an argument is a float the compiler
      may issue a warning and compile to non-float,

      if receiver or arguments are computed ... there should be a
      default behaviour.
