This reminds me of a weirdness with some sat navs: the distance to your exit/destination is displayed as: 12 ... 11 ... 10 ... 10.0 ... 9.9 ... 9.8 ... with the value 10.0 shown only while the distance is between 9.95 and 10. It's not really a bug but it's strange seeing the display update from 10 to 10.0 as you pass the imaginary ten-mile milestone so perhaps it's a distraction worth avoiding.
Mercedes for awhile had a fuel gauge that showed 1/4 1/2 3/4 1/1
They had another one that went R 2/4 4/4
I'm still undecided which was more weird. You can see them both on eBay.
There's nothing weird here. Those are very common fractions used across several domains, including cooking.
But one thing that I would really love to see are actual liters or gallons (depending on the country where I am at the moment).
