Is there definite evidence that browser arithmetic is this precise ?
Might it not be better to force the sum of the dimensions to be
just less than 100%, in order to allow for possible rounding errors
in converting from percent into internal units ? Certainly in my
own designs I always aim for a sum of the order of not more
than 99.8%.
