e.g. 4e-10 - is a scientific format of number where e is a power, but 4e-10d looks like a typo to me. If not what d stands for?

I agree it is not necessary at that point. @alvinj maybe added it to distinguish 4e-10d (double) from 4e-10f) float.

Yes, removing this is fine. (FWIW, I tracked that d down to a blog post I wrote back in 2012, and it referenced another doc that was written in 1998. 😄)
