Not a bug, it's a limitation of the IEEE binary representation of numbers. The report truncates instead of rounding, which is not really serious enough to be considered a bug.

At 14 digits, you're really close to the limit of 15.5 significant digits, which is the capacity of IEEE standard. If you are subtracting numbers which are longer than that, the result may lose lower digits (you get zeros there) even though the result is shorter than the limit.

Is the inflation that bad over there?
