If `\RawNoindent` is modified as suggested doing `\everypar{}\RawNoindent` will not have the expected effect by naive end user such as myself. The user would have to do `\toks11{}`. It turns...

> And to answer what the raw commands are good for. Well, in some sense simply to be able to initiate the paragraph building process without anything "extra". In my...

My musings about l3fp reveal an obsession but, had I opened source3.pdf, I would have known l3skip basically wraps around `\dimexpr`. Ok, so the definition is currently ```latex \cs_new:Npn \dim_to_decimal_in_bp:n...

I forgot to simplify the fraction (because Knuth does not either). So: ```latex \cs_new:Npn \dim_to_decimal_in_bp:n #1 { \dim_to_decimal:n { \__int_eval:w ( 2 * \__dim_eval:w #1 \__dim_eval_end: + 1 ) *...

(Un)fortunately I did not consider the case of a negative `#1`. One must replace `+1` by `-1` for them in the conversion formula... this complicates things... again I will simply...

Here is the list of all decimals `X = 12.dd` such that current `\dim_to_decimal_in_bp:n{Xbp}` produces a `Y` such that TeX considers `Xbp` and `Ybp` to be different dimensions, to show...

Mathematically here is how to obtain from a positive TeX dimension `T sp` the largest dimension D smaller or equal to `T sp` and exprimable in the unit `bp`, respectively...
