Should I worry about too many decimals in my sass/css values?

I'm working on a web that should be scalable so I'm using ems and rems for element/font sizes.

Using sass I have a function to return font size in em as in em(33px) and it generates values like these 1.94118 em, which I guess is already trimmed by sass.

Chrome does seem to render everything perfectly but should I worry about compatibility, bugs, something breaking ?

I need to support IE11 onwards so I guess I don't have to worry on that front.

Should I round to 2 decimal places, for example? Is it a better practice?

    It's perfectly OK and cross-browser to have 5-6 digits after decimal point. It's just a regular floating-point value. – Marat Tanalin Jun 20 '16 at 12:27
