> And its not in cents rather _minor units_ which you as working in fintech should ought to understand the difference

Erm, did you see the quotation marks around "in cents" ? It's a _quote_ from the docs at the link. The link _that you gave_.

The issue is not "do you or I understand the difference", it's "does stripe" and "do stripe users, after reading that?"

It is simplistic, like the int, and is not making the point that this is great.
