Oh dear. I guess we weren't stoic enough. How will we survive this embarrassment?

No. Apart from SHOW and program listings, numbers are never shown with more than 12 digits of precision. The reason is that with more digits, you'd get numbers that wouldn't fit on one line of the display, and that would mess up the 42S user interface.

Or that's the reason not to display more than 12 digits in Free42, anyway. Since the DM42 doesn't have the 22x2 character size constraint, FIX/SCI/ENG nn with nn ≥ 12 would be doable, but it would probably still require a lot of work to support.
