For a game I'm making, I have a helper function that takes in a specified time (as a float) and returns a (heap based) wait instruction. The times are literals sprinkled throughout the code base of callers of this function, so I maintain a cache of time -> wait instruction to reduce allocations.
Wouldn't your life be much simplier if you'd represented time as integer milliseconds? I totally get it being too late now, but I think that's an argument for making floats a little bit unpleasant to start working with.
