No. According to the ancient saying, "I can make this program
arbitrarily fast ... if it doesn't have to give the right answer".
Percentage-point improvements are not worth the risk of introducing
hard-to-find, compiler-and-hardware-dependent bugs.
Show me how to find/prevent those bugs, and I'm all for going with
the stricter rules. But you're so far off base with the above argument
that I wonder whether we understand each other at all.
