I think that 2-decimal LB score is too rough to give information about whether the submission improved from previous one or not.\nCurrently from 5th to 25th they have the same score 1.08, even improving by 0.01 is pretty big at this stage.\nSo I want the 3rd decimal of LB score to be shown, then I can see the difference between 1.089 sub and 1.080 sub.\nHow do you guys think about it?
