Only for list-directed output and if people use really large formats (which is
a lot of cases). Otherwise, not.

Might be.

Rounding is done for all I/O, including input. For example, if you have:
read ("0.1", *, rounding="up") x
read ("0.1", *, rounding="down") y
then you will have x == nearest(y, -1.)
