Description
Allowing both negative and positive scale makes it ambiguous what the scale of a number should be when it using exponential notation, e.g., 0.01E3. Should that have a precision of 4 and a scale of 2 since it's specified as 2 points to the right of the decimal and it evaluates to 10? Or a precision of 1 and a scale of -1?
Current it's the latter, but I think it should be the former.
