IEEE754-2008 says it produces a quiet NaN, so as long as the system has IEEE754 math this is fine. The only reason to do this is to avoid including math.h. Issue: 427

OTOH if the system doesn't have NAN then
math.hwon't define it so this would produce a compilation error.It compiles fine on Clang and GCC but MSVC produces a
warningerror:The only reason to do this is to avoid including
math.h.So I think the MSVC warning is enough reason to not make this change (just to make the header as warning-clean as possible, especially since this is in a macro currently).EDIT: Oh, it's an error, not a warning, so really does not work. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/error-messages/compiler-errors-1/compiler-error-c2124?view=msvc-170
