has to do with rounding up to get the most tax out of us without calling it a full cent of a tax. think of all those 9/10 of a cent times billions of transactions every week. it adds up quick

Obscure reference: the movie office space when the put the virus in and he puts the decimal in the wrong place instead of taking tenths of a cent, they tax too much.
