I understand the limitations of IEEE754, and why this is a frequently asked
question. That said, one could argue that it would be more user friendly if the
formatting of a cell containing an equation (and the sum in the corner)
defaulted to the number of decimal places shown to the minimum (or maximum)
number of decimal places entered in any referenced cell containing a number. In
the example provided, it just doesn't make sense to display a result to 14
places when at most 2 are provided.
