In issue 5920, Mark Dickinson raises an issue having to do with
float.__format__ and how it handles the default format presentation type
(that is, none of 'f', 'g', or 'e') versus how str() works on floats:

I agree with him that the current behavior is confusing and should be
changed. I'm going to make this change, unless anyone objects. Please
comment on the issue itself if you have any feedback.
Eric.
