I think we are mincing words here. It's a simple matter of changing the way the math function works.
I understand that it's an oddity that the computer doesn't quite see how simple the numbers are, but that happens for humans too. Take a simple case of expressing 2/3 as a floating point decimal number, you can't actually type out the exact value, even with unlimited monkeys to do the typing for you. That's a case where decimal has its limitations. Computers have different limitation cases, because they're working in binary.
That said, having a mathPrecision equivalent to numberFormat would solve the issue too, any tiny amounts below the mathPrecision value would be rounded up or down.
