I'm wondering why you don't use the high order bits of the exponent instead of the low order bits of the mantissa?
Because my benchmark was quick and dirty, and it was easier to mess with the low order bits that the code is already messing with. I have been considering using high order bits. (It's also possible to use some of each.)
