AutistMask/src/shared/transferAmount.js

// The base-unit amount an ERC-20 transfer from the wallet's own Send screen is
// encoded with.
//
// A token amount is a decimal string plus a scale, and the two come from
// different places. The confirmation screen renders the amount, the balance and
// the symbol from the block explorer's cached metadata (see
// fetchTokenBalances() in balances.js); the transfer used to be encoded from
// decimals() read off the contract at signing time, and nothing compared the
// two. A token whose on-chain scale differs from the cached one — an
// upgradeable or proxy token, a caller-dependent one, a stale or wrong explorer
// entry — therefore signed an amount that was never displayed, off by a power
// of ten for every decimal place of disagreement.
//
// So the scale used to encode is the scale the screen rendered with, carried
// forward on the pending transaction, and the contract's own answer is read
// only to be compared with it. A disagreement is a refusal, never a preference
// for either number: the wallet cannot tell which of the two the user meant,
// and both candidate transfers move an amount nobody approved.
//
// This is the confirmTx counterpart to approvalVerify.js, which does the same
// job for the dApp approval path, and it takes the same stance: a quantity that
// cannot be compared with what was displayed has not been checked, so an absent
// or unusable value is refused rather than filled in.
//
// Every message here is shown to the user on the transaction error screen, so
// each is a full sentence and names the numbers it is refusing over.
