I feel like if they are not going to specify and if it exists under 1% should be 1% regardless of rounding. Its just wierd to put it as 0%.

Yeah, I get what you're saying. Perhaps <1% would have been more clear for that one.

Yeah. I mean there is no figure like it on the graph but if something was like 99.6 it shoudl do >99 and not 100. 0 and 100 should be exceptions to the rounding rule.
