Still doesn't explain why "Trailing zeroes in a number without a decimal point" are not significant, considering how each such zero increases the number by an order of magnitude and how appending .0 suddenly makes these zeroes significant.
Check the Wikipedia article it explains that aswell. Short answer is, that trailing zeros are somewhat ambiguous and that you have to specify it by some rule, which is done by the task description.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse

Yes, but I suppose it's changed to avoid the obvious
string -> number -> stringconversion that would take care of non-significant zeros.Well actually, no. See my response :D
