The general standard is to go up to 3 decimal places in part files. I agree,
main vertices really don’t need more than 1 or 2 places. For derived vertices,
more precision may be require to keep everything aligned, so going out to 3
places is good.
For transformation matrixes, more decimal places may be called for. For
instance, rotating by 45 degrees gives lovely irrational values, and using 5
places does make a small-but-noticable difference in the results.

First, I layed out a set of 4 T2s along each of the symetrical curved and
sloped edges. As objects, one could layout one side and call a symetry
function to set the other side.

What is the meaning of T2?
You might want to look into LDScript. This is scripting language that offers a
number of reflection features.
