{{{tiny}}}? If we just print it, it should be fine; even when there's some
actual comparisons being done, I think there won't be any trouble with the
floating point numbers. I'll think about this some more, but it seems okay
to me.
Right: I think in recent history, {{{tiny}}} has been an integer, and in
this case it prints like an integer. Allowing it to have digits beyond
the decimal point is "just in case". If it is a float, we can print it
when needed with as many decimal places as we want.
