It does make cheap useful things cost $10 or $1 or $0.1.
And yeah, it flattens out a lot of resource allocation decisions when most hand weapons cost $100 and most good armors cost $1000, but that's sort of the point about unrealistic pricing by utility, it's largely there to [enable] those kind of play issues, which may well not be realistic.

While true, curiously GURPS does officially avoid fractional prices, so for n=-1 GURPS would usually round to either 1 or 0.
