Number of digits implemented as an option.

I strongly disagree with this modification. Just as to make it clear, I am NOT a casual player (1900+ on GG), regular user of MET and roll outs, and I cannot understand why on earth we should need a fourth digit. A MET with 4 digits is pure non-sense for all practical purposes. As posted before on rgb, this seems both meaningless and confusing. I'd much rather support Jorn's proposal to change the GUI to 3 decimal places.

The reason is, most players got used long ago now to 3 decimal-type equities. The 4th decimal brings VERY little in terms of accuracy (if anything at all) and little in statistical terms, while it affects a lot the instant vision we have of a position. To illustrate this : by now I have a strong feel for what a 0.834 take is or what a 0.642 cubeless equity means.

It may sound stupid, but add a simple digit and it takes a lot more time (when reviewing analyzed matches) to realize what equity is by mentally skipping this 4th digit.

Any comments welcome

Why not change the GUI to 3 decimal places instead?
