This is not a bug, it's just the typical behavior of float arithmetic.
"94.31" doesn't have any exact equivalent in float4, so when you convert
it to a form that is willing to print more decimal places, you find out
that indeed the stored value wasn't quite 94.31.
If this sort of thing makes you uncomfortable, probably you should be
using type "numeric" instead.
