Well, this behaviour of Oracle may be debatable too.
INSERT INTO test_number VALUES(10.0500);
SQL> SELECT * FROM test_number;

----------
10.05
Anyways, I am more interested in how PostgreSQL can make us have trailing zeroes or no trailing zeroes depending on the type you choose or other work-arounds.
I think there is a way to get the inserted trailing zeroes in Oracle as well.
So if you explicitly inserted 10.0500, you want to get 10.0500 but not 10.05 ?
especially in the price
I know some spplications that just crashed due to incorrectly assuming trailing zeroes
