Decimal.fromComponents(1,new Decimal("1e5"),100)

If this method could take Decimal there would be a possibiliyy of hitting overflow - Decimal's fields are numbers

I'm pretty sure he means to add functionality up to 10^^(10^^(2^1024))...

I mean to be able to use a decimal for layer instead of a number, bringing the max from 10^^1e308 to true infinity.

This isn't the goal of this project

[patashu has an idea bringing the maximum to 10{1.79e308}10, much MUCH larger than 10^^^500. (assuming Decimal can only nest 500 layers),so your idea is only a waste of space. also you can try omeganum.js, which goes to 10{1000}10.
