P.S. I think I touched some related subjects in the past, just can't remember which of them included floating point imprecision out of a certain range.
I remember it was probably in these threads

From this thread:
https://forum.rainmeter.net/viewtopic.php?t=35984#p182711
“The reason is because of how numbers are stored in Rainmeter. Every measure's number value is stored as a floating point number and when converted to a string, it can sometimes include extra decimal points. So a number like "12", can be represented internally like "12.0000000001". These conversions can cause the regular expression to fail.”
