[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #53169] format free displays 1 more digit than short format

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #53169 (project octave):

Format free is supposed to be what you would get using the simplest output
from C++ using "std::cout << d" with default settings or Fortran's print *, d
(free format).

Maybe it's not that useful and could be deprecated.  But I don't know that
anything needs to be fixed with the format itself if we decide to keep it. 
Maybe explain it better?
