Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm always frustrated when old algorithms for increasing/taming precision are being used instead of newer better ones 😉.

Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

Herbie

Pherbie (actually extended Herbie with fully automated trade-off search between precision and performance)

Describe alternatives you've considered
There are no alternatives - the entire point of this lib is to increase precision.
