We really need this. Otherwise, our precision is not very good.

Okay, rug won't work because it can't compile to wasm. So I think there are two options forward:

  1. wrap rug in a Number type with a fallback for wasm (maybe bigdecimal-rs)
  2. Just use bigdecimal-rs

I am in favor of the former, but this is actually going to be a lot of work.
