Is there a KEEP anywhere for how Kotlin plans to handle wider numeric types once the JVM supports them with Valhalla? Eg. 128 bit integers or 80 bit floating point numbers. See:

Personally, I hope we somehow decouple ourselves from the
Byte
,
Short
,
Int
, and
Long
terminology, instead opting for
Int8
,
Int16
,
Int32
,
Int64
,
Int128
, etc. I know it probably won’t happen, but one can hope 🤞
