Because of a typo that Orm Finnendahl made in 2002.
and would it make sense to allow floor and ceil to work with a single argument only?
Yes, but it wouldn't be backwards-compatible, unless [expr] allows optional arguments, but there's no way to specify that in [expr]'s function table.
Do you really think, we should keep this (bug) for backwards compatibility? BTW, Orm told me once, that it wasn't he who wrote this code.
