I don't see how rounding applies to the grade, but why not just give us the values then?
I'm still asking the same question, myself.

If you're not using a particular grade
You are never not using a grade of bioware or cyberware. Standard is a grade.

Maybe it was wordcount or time or space contraints.
After all, they'd need to have a combined table to show how it, f.Ex. stacks with Adapsin.

Wak has said that using hundreths is the intention for ware essence cost I believe.
Or at least he said it was assumed that was how players would do it.

No.

What I'm pointing out, under the only interpretation I consider to fit the full written quality of Biocompatibility in 5e, is;

The percentage reduction applies to the grade.

The rounding applies to the grade.

I don't see how rounding applies to the grade, but why not just give us the values then?

Used: 1.1
Normal: 0.9
Alpha: 0.7
Beta: 0.6
Delta: 0.4

And be done with it in that case?

Welcome to Shadowrun... where the Rules are needlessly Vague & Confusing. I expect that they think we have Common Sense.... we don't! We need these things stated very simply so we can't try to manipulate it.

Common Sense costs karma, not everyone had leftovers at creation.  ;D

I saw a player once who claimed an Allergy to Common Sense for his character.. ;)

Do you believe in a greater WIRELESS, an Invisible(WiFi) All Seeing(detecting those connected- at least if within 100'), All Knowing(all online data) Presence that we can draw upon for Wisdom(downloads & updates), Strength (wifi boni) and Comfort (porn) or do you turn your back on it  (Go Offline)?

Eh, common sense is overrated.

Anyway, I concede the point that they may have ment it in the way people discuss here, even though I think they worded it incorrectly. But since it's apparently getting errata'd anyway, might as well wait for that for the definitive answer.

Do you really consider waiting for errata a sensible approach when the CRB-document hasn't been touched for like a year?

It's supposed to be in the pipeline. And obviously, in the mean time it's something players have to discuss amongst their groups, and pick which interpretation they think is most correct.
