I was going to add that maybe we should link to the round(dp or numeric) function in the documentation and let it be explicit about the rounding rules pertaining to half - which when I look isn't actually documented: round(dp or numeric) (same as input) round to nearest integer Maybe everyone just knows that rounding, unless otherwise stated, rounds halves away from zero but it doesn't seem like a bad idea to be explicit.
