length(trunc(goose, 0)::text) + scale(goose)

I suspect you might encounter some issues, namely around
123.456789::numeric(6,1) casting behavior and maybe
00059.12000::numeric(6,1) treatment of unimportant zeros.  I haven't tested
any of that.  The above will get you a single length value for a given
input.
