By lossy I mean rounding errors. Try to combine 2 or more recurring decimals in any function and you start loosing accuracy.
Mathematicians rarely use decimals (also they rarely use numbers). Everything stays in fractions. Maybe the very last step is delivered as a decimal, but rarely.
What does lossy mean? I’m not trying to die on any hill, but I’m quite confused aswell.
