This number appeared in an output line of

cannot break line; overset by 0.0832641i

  Such information is hard to grasp

1) the used unit (inch) is too big

2) the number is too small

3) the number has too many (irrelevant) digits.


a) the unit should be adequate for expressing a number [0.1 1000[

b) be adequate to draw simple conclusions

  I find the best information content of such a number is to show how
many letters (characters) are approximately behind it.

  So for me, it is the unit en or em.
