I'm not advocating floating point; I think it's a pain, and if integer is
working, that's better. But....
>>> from decimal import *
>>> b = Decimal("1234567891.987654321")
>>> b
Decimal('1234567891.987654321')
>>> float(b)
1234567891.9876542
>>> str(float(b))
'1234567891.99'
>>> repr(float(b))
'1234567891.9876542'
I haven't checked, but it looks like an artifact of float.str.
