Confusion over rounding, truncation, significant figures, and precision. #48

Description

@stylewarning

Lots of bugs have popped up due to sloppy conflation of these terms.

Moreover, we've been inconsistent in asking for "bits of precision", "digits of precision", etc.

We need to comb through the code and be very precise on what we mean.
