Yes, this is confusing. The problem is that the "scientific" style uses
scientific notation only for sufficiently large or small numbers, with
thresholds determined by the powerlimits parameter. The line I added
above will force scientific notation.
The ticklabel_format method needs another kwarg to enable setting the
powerlimits.
