After realizing that +LOOP can overflow or underflow, it occurred to me...is that state something that ALL the arithmetic operators should detect? Should it be 1) ignored, 2) a flag that a program can test, 3) an error/exception?? Maybe this issue is addressed somewhere in sections 1-4 of the Standard?

Section 3.2.2.2 specifies the behaviour on overflow or underflow. The next standard will refine this; see the proposal 2s-Complement Wrap-Around Integers.
