If the behavior of that mode is to ALWAYS round regardless of the value of the remainder, then it should remain ceil IMO. It's a pretty well understood behavior in many programming languages. However, "HALF_TOWARDS_POSITIVE_INFINITY" is a different behavior, and should not be called ceil.
There's already `HalfAwayFromZero` + `AwayFromZero` as companion modes. It would make sense to me to also make it `PositiveInfinity` + `HalfPositiveInfinity` [1] instead of `Ceil` + `HalfPositiveInfinity`, which are appear to be unrelated based on their naming.
That would make it clear that those two are closely related and also that all the modes starting with 'Half' would be the ones that are only relevant if the last digit is 5, whereas the others act unconditionally.
Best regards Tim Düsterhus [1] Possibly with an 'Towards' inserted before the Negative/Positive.
