don't think that fits, 'Kahan' if implemented might solve the other problem,
but Kahan is 'not so easy' it'll take some time ... 

in the meantime the rawsubtract-sequence can be solved by other means, e.g.
calculation sequence as the subtrahends are numbered ... 

think it might lead to circles if rawsubtract is used - and neccessary? - to
calculate the 'kahan artefacts', and one would use kahan inside rawsubtract to
avoid deviations from operand ordering ... ??? 

propose unduping,
