I don’t wanna argue with you and I probably won’t keep digging into the GitHub further but the value of a transaction in bitcoin is denominated in satoshis. Which is an integer value.

Also see this post from John Carvallo where he advocates renaming satoshis to bitcoin because of the point I’ve been making here.
