This neatly leads us back to my second assertion: In all my years of computer programming, I've never seen one single program that actually *needs* the Fibonacci numbers in the first place (let alone in arbitrary-precision).
I think there are variants on AVL trees that use something related to a Fibonacci sequence for balancing. I don't remember the details, though.
