Update spec text to match latest February 2026 API#85
Merged
Conversation
Rewrite the Amount specification text with a new value model that separates the numeric value from its precision, remove .with() in favor of .convertTo(), add ECMA-402 toLocaleString and locale/usage- based convertTo, and normatively reference CLDR for unit conversion and preferences.

We're still inlining/defining way too much functionality that's already in the spec, and which we'll be able to move around and refactor during Stage 2 so that we can avoid introducing new text.
Also, remove CountFractionDigits (no longer needed).
Also, remove several unused AOs.

Add note saying that that's for 402 to override.

I went ahead and applied some changes directly, to more clearly set this proposal as being stacked on top of keep-trailing-zeros. To that effect, its biblio.json is included and used to make sure that we're e.g. calling FormatNumericToString with its third argument.
I also removed the StringIntlMV RS, as the changes to it are all within keep-trailing-zeros.

This brings the spec text up-to-date with the API changes proposed in #80 and #81 . The main difference is that we support a notion of storage of internal values of Amounts as a disjunctive type (String, BigInt, Number), as well as a new
.convertTomethod that supports unit conversion, following CLDR.
