With the goal to have the rating with a decimal point, for better sorting. like original poster also asked.
The metadata source plugins can only update the main calibre columns. As the ratings column is an integer, the metadata plugins have to round or truncate the ratings if they are not integers.There is a version of the Goodreads pluin that puts the decimal rating in one of the main columns and then you use another to move it to a decimal ratings column. It isn't in the plugins index, but it is here.
