Of course it can. No matter how you represent the float parameters,
eventually they get used at runtime, at which point the representation
is converted to the closest floating-point number. But if you insist
that floats cannot be compared for equality, then the makers of C++
agreed with you, and left floating template parameters out for that
reason! I claim that I get to have it both ways, and I'm sure you'll
insist that I get to have neither :-) In any case, once again I think
we have come to an impasse over philosophy.
