From Lib/numbers.py:
## Notes on Decimal ## ---------------- ## Decimal has all of the methods specified by the Real abc, but it should ## not be registered as a Real because decimals do not interoperate with ## binary floats (i.e. Decimal('3.14') + 2.71828 is undefined). But, ## abstract reals are expected to interoperate (i.e. R1 + R2 should be ## expected to work if R1 and R2 are both Reals).
Why?
