    Those very small numbers most likely reflect rounding error. I would not worry about it.

    Yes, if there are more decimal places in a measurement than the system displays, then it will round accordingly. Since your “leftover” numbers are very small, I would guess that’s what is going on. You don’t have to hit your macros/calories quite that exactly, so I wouldn’t worry about it.
