feat: Improve Personal Best Transparency by Showing Exact Values

[AnshMNSoni]

Problem

Personal bests appear to be compared using the exact (floating-point) WPM value, while the UI often displays rounded values.

Example:

• Existing PB: displayed as 61 WPM
• New result: 60.77 WPM, displayed/rounded as 61 WPM

From a user's perspective, both results appear to be 61 WPM, but the PB does not update. This can make it seem like the dashboard is broken or that the result was not recorded correctly.

Expected Behavior

Users should be able to clearly understand why a run did or did not become a new personal best.

Proposed Solutions

Option 1 (Preferred)

Display exact values (or 2 decimal places) when viewing personal bests.

Example:

• PB: 61.12 WPM
• New run: 60.77 WPM

This immediately explains why the PB was not updated.

Option 2

Keep rounded values in the UI, but provide a tooltip on hover.

Example:

Displayed:

• 61 WPM

Tooltip:

• Exact value: 61.12 WPM

Option 3

Show a comparison message after the test.

Example:

• "Did not beat personal best (61.12 WPM)"
• "Current run: 60.77 WPM"

Benefits

• Reduces confusion around rounded scores.
• Prevents users from reporting false-positive bugs.
• Improves transparency of the PB system.
• Maintains the current ranking and leaderboard logic.

Additional Idea

Consider tracking separate personal best categories such as:

• Fastest WPM
• Highest Accuracy
• Highest Consistency

This would allow users to recognize improvements even when they do not achieve a new speed PB.
