Original description
Serial.print(n, HEX, 3); // for example
Recommendation: don't implement this if it causes the size of certain executables to increase. The "certain executables": ones which don't use this feature.
Rationale: I have a small board and I don't want to waste the tiny memory I have. Furthermore, I feel that if someone needs this feature, then they should use a more powerful system than an Arduino. (And I =do= use this feature heavily, but in big-time programs.)
