This rounding down of the spam hits (to the nearest 0.1) and of the stars (to the nearest integer) will hopefully be a more intuitive result.
Why do the points of individual rules in the content analysis not add up to the same point total?
The actual scores of the rules have three digits after the decimal, but in the Content analysis report they are rounded off to the nearest tenth.
The points shown for individual rules in the following example total 8.5, not the 8.6 indicated.
