What do you think is the most correct output for 1 000 000 000 000 000 (with precision = 14)? Versions <= 5.2.1 output "1E+15", 5.2.2 says "1.0E+15". Both options looks ok to me, but we need to decide which one is the best. I can find pros/cons for both options myself and it doesn't matter for me which one is chosen, though somebody might. I remember asking people on the channel and the most popular answer was "both are legal and look ok". Opinions? -- Wbr, Antony Dovgal
