Recurring patterns

The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.

Denial of Service: Parsing highly skewed exponential notation within `from_str_radix` can trigger an integer overflow, leading to an application panic or crash. This risk was addressed by widening the parsing type to i128 and using checked subtraction before converting back to i64.
