When your dealing with phases or angles, it will be inconvienent. Even if
you use degrees, it will be anoying to have 360 (or 400, i18n :) points,
only 4 of which have labels.
Ditto for tape simulations, the speeds are 76, 38, 19 and 9.5 cm/s (30,
15, 7.5 and 3.75 inches/s).
Tim sent a mail a few days ago with some other examples where integers are
not the significnat points.
