Which implies that they do not match the values generated by the
algorithm. If you are going to keep the table, at least trim it so that
we aren't wasting bytes in unused precised. And split into the distinct
auxdivider, etc.

Indeed. I'd throw it back at the hardware people, what are they doing in
kilobytes of data that can't be down in a few bytes of algorithm?
