Is the audience of this article only people that think about Functional Programming (as a philosophy) often enough to refer to it as FP?

Downvoted, and yet - is it not wise to start with a headline that is clear enough to attract a broad audience? If the article really only wants to attract a smaller slice, that's fine, but I asked a valid question (in my opinion.)

Seconded. My first thought after reading the title was that it might be about a post IEEE754 floating point standard, or about a new way to implement floating point calculations in hardware...
