The old description said it understands these values, but this is not true. The only reasons Infinity get parsed as non-zero is because it starts with an "I", which is interpreted as 1i and that's where the parsing stops. Any other word that starts with an "I" behaves the same. The name "special float values" has been borrowed from the string/to_f_spec.rb
