No, it is not true. They reflect the precision of the number in the context of its use. If required to calculate the population density of Greater London in 2011, I would use the population in millions - not because that is the limit of the accuracy of the census results but because greater accuracy does not add significant value to the precision of the population density.

the standard deviation of the sample decreases.
Since the population of the Earth is around 7 billion (short scale), I would use either a long long integer that was 64 bits in length (if available) that would give me 18 digits of precision, or a double precision floating type that would give me 15 digits of precision.
