Hm the second one is only relevant for output. Why not

This could include the number of digits behind the comma, the optional
accuracy/whatever and the unit. This will be fine for the API, and the
MW-Syntax.
Well, like you said, the output format includes a lot of things, like the
decimal separator, the thousands separator, location of the negative sign,
whether to put a zero before the decimal point, and digits after the decimal
point. We still need a name for the latter :)
