Serge Stroobandt added the comment: Mark: Don't shoot the messenger! I literally quoted the implemented proprietary specification. However, I do agree that the term "numbers (or bases) with an infinte decimal representation" would be more appropriate in this context.
Also, improving documentation is good, but having a new function with the desired *true* engineering notation would be even better! Admittedly, this was my ultimate objective for filing this enhancement bug.
