I don't think that's necessarily true.  Intervals work fine with non-integer
start, stop, and increment values - but if you're using Floats you must
beware of roundoff errors.  Try inspecting

	(0.1 to: 1.0 by: 0.1) asOrderedCollection

and view the results.  The values appear correct - but if you evaluate

	((0.1 to: 1.0 by: 0.1) asOrderedCollection at: 9) - 0.9

you get -1.110223024625156e-16, indicating that some roundoff error has
begun to creep in.

Floats suck.
