Actually, that's not how that works, but the end result would be the same (zero treads lost).

The rounding referred to applies to the _ratio_ being rounded down, not the attack strength, so the question being asked is actually "When something that is disabled that has an attack strength of 0.5 in an overrun (eg, LGEV), how many treads are lost?"

Since treads are a _fixed_ 1:1 ratio, the LGEV would still have the same odds of hitting, but it would not do any damage because you can't blow off 1/2 a tread.
