The majority (over 80%) of AUR packages has a popularity less than 0.01 and for more than 25% of these packages, the popularity is actually non-zero. We can certainly use 2 decimal points by default and switch to lower precision only below a certain threshold (0.2?)

If a popularity is less than 0.01 for a package, is the number even meaningful?
