mrprogrammer - you missed the entire point of Engineering format. We want fixed 
exponents (typically 0, 
3, 6, etc.) corresponding to the usual x1000 increments in common unit naming 
(thousands-kilo, 
millions-mega, etc). So I could have 4 thousand, or 45 thousand, or 453 
thousand - i.e. 4e3, 45e3, or 
453e3. Yes the precision moves, but we need it to be that way. If you want 
fixed precision stay with 
'scientific format 4.00e3, 4.50e4, 4.53e5' which already exists and operates 
well.
