* proper application level constraints should prevent unhandled database
exception occurences, e.g `ActiveRecord::InvalidForeignKey` for operations
performed through Models (i.e. not `#delete_all` etc.)
### User interface
* values provided by user have to be exactly preserved, avoiding any precision
loss due to e.g. type casting
* when it's not possible to store value without information loss, feedback has to
be given at the time of entering value
* values can be received using either:
* `input[number]` - validates: number format, value against `[min]` and
`[max]` attributes; cannot validate precision (no `[pattern]` support);
or
* `input[text]` - can validate number format and precision with
`[pattern]`; cannot validate range (no `[min]`/`[max]` support),
* none of the above prevents misinterpretation of values between 0 and
Float::MIN as 0.0 - this has to be checked manually,
* assuming that user input with _precision > DIG_ is as rare as in
the range _(0, MIN)_, the decision is to choose input which requires
the least/simplest additional code.
