For us, constrained fadd and friends aren't particular relevant. We
don't need to model changes to the floating point environment, and chose
to use explicit control flow for fault handling (e.g. div-by-zero). We
might someday explore using constrained operations for performance
reasons, but up until now, haven't really had the need to. So, no
opinion, sorry.
