          There's one known unknown here: the selection of the quantum for division.

The reference implementation follows the calculation of the quantum as given in Mike Cowlishaw's General Decimal Arithmetic Specification. I know that that's not official spec text but I've found it to be a useful companion document. IEEE 754-2019 does specify the desired quantum, and that's what's present here in this spec text.
