Number.toFixed() not rounding per specification

Sun 2019.08.25

And just when one thinks every stone is over turned, more web searching digs up that others have found that toFixed(2); is problematic between different browsers and have concluded the safest method is to use your own rounding function, 'just to be sure!'

A link there over turns this relatively recent 'fix' - "Revision 1383484 of Math.round()"

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Math/round$revision/1383484

"Rounding 1.005 should have an expected result of 1.01, but it returns 1."

So, what do we know so far for function toFixed()?

by definition:

'The number is rounded if necessary, and the fractional part is padded with zeros if necessary so that it has the specified length'

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Number/toFixed

EXCEPT when it doesn't, then one must apply a patch that is only discovered when locating the recommended fix as suggested in revision 1383484.

Pardon me while I go scream!!
