:-)
probably the discussion on [804]
to recap:
katja's original double-precision fixes (on which the current
double-precision support is based) used different formats for displaying
(and saving) numbers, based on whether you were using double precision
or not.
i intentionally left this format magic out (because it also had
undesired side-effects).

yep.
i agree that we need two different atom2string converters for those two
use-cases.
it would also solve the problem with spaces-in-symbols [824].
i've opened a feature-request [1310]
