Very good point. I'm just now fully understanding why at my last fin-tech job we stored all monetary amounts in pennies. I thought at first it was just ideal to keep everything as integers in the database but I see now that due to our Node backend, something as simple as 0.20 + 0.10 could pose a problem.

That's not due to Node, that's due to IEEE 754 standard floating point operations.
