Hi, I am the author. You make a good point about subnormals, thank you. I will jot that down for a future update to the doc :)

It is funny you mention the Padé approximation; I was debating whether or not to include that in this article. Originally I planned to stop after Minimax (using Remez), but if I include rational approximation schemes anyway (e.g. Carathéodory-Fejer), it probably makes sense to implement and analyze that as well.

Just jumping into to say I am loving the article, thanks! I'm dealing with a lot of exps in an optimization problem right now and frankly only have cursory understanding of what's going on under the hood so this was very enlightening for me. Thanks again.
