Assuming adding a layer of vex to convert from float to string is a pain, the ftrim() expression can be used to pretty print floats as strings.

ftrim(detail(-1, "test", 0))

sprint("%.3f", 0.7838759687)

sprintf

as mentioned previously, it's has to do with floating point precision
even if you do: f@target = 0.998;
you will see that the Font SOP will still print something else, like: 0.99800002574920654

it's because it can't represent 0.998 precisely as a floating point number

so you'll need to format your floating point number into a string using sprintf() for example

sprint("%f", floatValue);

sprint("%.2f", floatValue);
