No. If you are doing anything with the data but a simple upload, you want the higher resolution
(using Replace Geometry in
JOSM)?
I don't imagine that JOSM will upload a coordinate "non-change" like this. If it does, that's a JOSM bug, as there's other ways to produce such a non-change like squaring something already square.

This way the coordinates downloaded from the API would match those from
ogr2osm, and needlessly modifying the node coordinates with a higher
precision could be prevented.
Best to attack this on the editor side.d
