We could use floats internally and gain a lot of performance as I described in my response here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49085136.
With this we would still be able to handle special cases correctly.
If you mean, you want float in the interface, I think the picture would be the similar as I described there: You still need to fallback to higher precision for certain computations. But you would also not be able to return the outputs correctly, so we would need to think about how we want to describe this in the specification...
