+ *   or 3.141592653589793238462643383279 may indicate potential
+ *   interoperability problems, since it suggests that the software that
+ *   created it expects receiving software to have greater capabilities
+ *   for numeric magnitude and precision than is widely available.
+ * </pre>
+ *
+ * <p>To overcome the precision loss, use for example {@link ToNumberPolicy#LONG_OR_DOUBLE} or
+ * {@link ToNumberPolicy#BIG_DECIMAL}.</p>
