   Doh. Right, @pjfanning . Thank you. I'll close this out.
   
   My bot suggests bumping the numerator to a long, and that:
   
   ```
   All three of your values fit one rule: Excel stops at the last convergent 
whose numerator fits in an unsigned 32-bit int (≤ 2^32−1).
   
   If you have a moment, two more Excel checks would pin down larger values: 
=TEXT(3000000000.5,"?/?") (the rule predicts 3000000000/1; trunk now gives 
6000000001/2) and =TEXT(5000000000.5,"?/?") (whole number above 2^32).
   ```
