Description

Is your feature request related to a problem?

We've got a PHP and TS imprecise number function that we use for PCI. These were ported from the respective Parse.ly dash code in order to have identical results between dash and PCI.

Describe the solution you'd like

Check the discussion here and see if we can have identical results to dash with simpler versions of the functions.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Do nothing.
