The only real goal I've seen is that you hope that `x == eval(repr(x))` for floating point numbers. But that is doomed to failure since it cannot work for NaN by its very definition.
I think that just means the definition needs a bit more finesse. It would be a reasonable goal for it to give back *some* NaN with the same flags and payload as the original.
