seq info says:
`--format=FORMAT'
     Print all numbers using FORMAT; default `%g'.  FORMAT must contain
     exactly one of the floating point output formats `%e', `%f', or
     `%g'.
Yeah, well "exactly" scares one into thinking "%1.f" is not allowed
unless they haven't lost hope and instead read further.

`--equal-width'
     Print all numbers with the same width, by padding with leading
     zeroes.  (To have other kinds of padding, use `--format').

$ seq -w 485.5000 .0125 488.0000
485.5000
485.5125

Well, I was scared by your paragraph that I was not going to get
trailing zeros with -w, but indeed I do too, so note that!

P.S.:
$ seq a c
a
b
c
At least note in the docs how to do that, if not mentioned already.
