If you deliberately try to manufacture NaN's, you can. I never said otherwise.
What you said is: "They just don't appear in normal computation, because the
interpreter raises an exception instead."
I just ran a calculation that created a NaN, the same as 4 - 3 creates a 1, and
no exception was raised.
Do you have an example where one is?
