"The operations behave like C++ valarrays. Addition is defined as the
addition of the corresponding elements of the operands. For example,
in the code below...
Subtraction, multiplication, division, and the logical operations
operate in a similar manner."

It's clearly and explicitly stated that
a) float is a legit underlying type
b) operators +, -, *, /, unary minus, ^, |, &, ~ are allowed
c) all those operators work the same way as the described piecewise addition

Do you expect anyone to read into the vague "behave like C++
valarrays" an embargo on "float | float"? I mean, if those vectors are
valarrays where is, say, the operator[]?

But i understand that under your rather peculiar interpretation
everything's fine. I will gladly move along.
