Still not sure about this. Going to see how we handle these tiny currency splits in oldDot.

In fact, even if you split d2, it's an odd UI:

Anyway, I kind of expected this is how we handle it everywhere with a tiny currency like VND. From oldDot, you can see the difference between USD and VND:

The lowest denomination of VND you can even get is 100 it seems though even splitting that is odd - it gives you a split of d100, and 8 "equal" amounts of d11 (so like d88 if you sum them):

100 VND is also equal to just 0.0043 USD, which doesn't exist. I'm basically on the fence as to whether this is a real thing we should fix or not, as it likely requires an internal fix. Going to ask in Slack.

Okay, as discussed in Slack, we're going to continue with this in the product, as it's not a real use case we expect anybody to ever encounter.
