Avoid hiding large coefficients
As we said before, a typical recommendation for improving numerics is to limit the range of constraint matrix coefficients. The rationale behind this guideline is that terms to be added in a linear expression should be of comparable magnitudes so that rounding errors are minimized. For example:
