Re: Remove Enum from Float and Double

I don't see much gain. It will break previously working code and the workaround to the breakage will likely be manually reimplementing enumFromTo in each instance.

I forgot the main point of my post :-) The primary motivation for removing these instances is that they cause endless confusion for beginners, e.g. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13203471/the-math-behind-1-09999999999999..., http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9810002/floating-point-list-generator, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7290438/haskell-ranges-and-floats, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10328435/how-to-solve-floating-point-numb..., and many more. On the other hand, how much working code is there "correctly" using there instances?
