i can has maths pweas.

take a moment and look at this picture



did you notice anything... funky...

2.7+7.8=10
Spoiler
10.5 actually  :P
[close]

now maybe my crew is really frugal and supply efficient. and they really are only using 10 supplies of there allotted 10.5.. but if they're actually using 10.5 i think it should display 10.5

You won't be able to refit fighters and bombers at all. They're designed/balanced around having a particular set of weapons and would be very broken if you could change it. Which ones you pick for your fleet -out of quite a few that are available- is the choice here, not how they're outfitted.

Perhaps it just rounds that part down, for simplicity's sake?

I'm guessing massed fleets with a grand number of logistical factors are the cause of that to occur.

What's probably happening is the 2.7 is, say, a rounded up 2.69 or some such - which would make the total less than 10.5.
