I don't agree that ‘0.021’ can be a valid abbreviation of ‘2.1’.

The abbreviation pattern still needs to be fixed as is, but there  
seems to be a common mindset of wanting an ‘alternate representation  
pattern’, something akin to the current ABBR pattern, with similar  
applications but without such specific semantics.
