That statement is false:
regression=# select 1234.000::numeric;
numeric
----------
1234.000
(1 row)
I'm not sure offhand what is the easiest way to suppress trailing
zeroes, but casting to plain numeric is not the route to a solution.
Really this is a textual formatting problem. You might find that the
best bet is something with trim() or a regexp. The trick would be
not removing zeroes that are significant ...
