C language docs says the following about .precision field in sprintf() format:

If the period is specified without an explicit value for precision, 0 is assumed.

$ node
> require("sprintf-js").sprintf("%.f", 2)
Thrown:
SyntaxError: [sprintf] unexpected placeholder
> require("sprintf-js").sprintf("%.0f", 2)
'2'
