Follow-up Comment #17, bug #36133 (project octave):

I already changed the default precision that Octave saves data files for
exactly this reason.  See

summary:     Fix Octave's -text format for saving data to make it lossless for
IEEE-754 doubles.


For num2str, I think user's are going to want compatibility so we should leave
this at 16 digits.
