AFAIK about grids, there is no reason for it. I did not think about it that much. It should be very easy to make it 0.000.
I almost always set grids with three digits of precision (e.g. 0.125), though I have to do so "blindly"; this is actually an issue that came up in the talk that John Bintz and I gave at LGM.
(Perhaps a precision preference should be made...)
I don't really see a need for preference.
Wouldn't it make more sense to have a "units"? So you could set it to 0.2 m or 0.2 cm. I think that there is a usability issue here, too many digits make the arrows harder to use. And, of course, there is the issue of when the next person asks for 4 digits of precision how do we reply? 5? 8? 20?
