It sends the information either way,you dont have consumption x.x,it counts more decimals.
And what Josè is saying is that it is NOT about the calculation accuracy (how many decimal places calculated to), it is about how much more server space will be required to put an extra decimal place up for up to 32 drivers in every race. If you think about doing that for every race in every league, that is TeraBytes (TB's) we are talking about on top of all the other storage required for this game. It ain't feasible anymore.
