Surely the Adobe fellows have something to say about this :). Flash tweening and 3D Flash libraries like Papervision3D make extensive use of floating point math. In an environment where tweaks like multiplying fixed points instead of dividing yields substantial performance increases, the "currency calculations" you speak of fade into insignificance.
