I'm not sure I understand this. Let's say the size of a team was 50±0.5 people in 2017. Such a confidence interval tells me that there must have been some fluctuation over the year, but not a huge one. At the same time, it's common practice to round such numbers to integers because it would look odd to talk about an average including "half" people. The datatype allows to model something like this. Why shouldn't it?
wrong uses of units […]
Why do you think "passenger" is not a valid unit?
