I see. I suppose it depends on personal preference, as nominator/denominator
is also fairly common on the web. But I am neither a mathematician, nor a
native English speaker, so it could also be very wrong to call a numerator
a nominator. It seems though that numerator is the preferred name. So,
shall I change all occurrences of nom/denom to num/denom in the spec?
