Description
Found this issue while working on a template using multiple decimal values, if you pass through a value like 0.05, the compiler will strip out all zeroes after the decimal point making 0.05 -> 0.5 after compiling. This doesn't happen to decimals without zeroes as 0.15 still compiles to 0.15.
Screenshot above shows a few different tests with these scenarios, including passing in a variable as 0.05 which works as expected.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the compiler behavior described in the issue with a literal 0.05 and a variable containing 0.05, then trace the decimal-literal compilation path. Done means decimal literals containing zeroes after the decimal point compile unchanged, while the existing variable behavior remains intact.
