No, it's the result of more precise Float printing. Consider this:
((7/5) roundTo: 0.01) = 1.4
==> false
((7/5) roundTo: 0.01) = 1.4000000000000001
==> true
For printing with a reduced precision you should not use roundTo but this:
7/5 printShowingDecimalPlaces: 2
==> '1.40'
7/5 printShowingMaxDecimalPlaces: 2
==> '1.4'
