  I can't think of any items right now that //need// to have 
millimeter-precision coordinates. But there are certainly objects that can have 
sub-meter precision. For example, there are at least a couple of geodetic 
survey markers in Finland (Q10684553 and Q10682441) that have a stored 
precision of 0.000001 (decimeter-level). And somebody could survey 
<https://chrismolloy.com/p152.php> the locations and coordinates of the 
existing Arago medallions found in Paris that marks the Paris meridian and add 
them all to Wikidata and these should have sub-meter precision. Sure, these 
coordinates may become outdated because we are assuming the WGS84 datum and 
plate tectonics is a thing, but these coordinates could be qualified with a 
point-in-time qualifier.
