--- Comment #4 from DF <[email protected]> ---
With most scientific data significant figures are very important. The number of
trailing zeros are used as placeholders denoting the precision of the number.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Significant_figures privides a more indepth
explanation.
Another example would be currency where one might include two trailing zeros
after the decimal place even for whole values eg $1.00.

This feature request is simply for steamlining the procedure for specifying the
precision. Currently one must manually right-click -> format cell -> change
decimal places. It could be set automatically based on the number of decimal
places entered by the user.
Example if I type or paste in 1.00, it should remain as 1.00, not automatically
be set to 1.
