Page 10, Section 2.3.2, the first of sentence of the second paragraph. I
think it should be corrected as "The read syntax for floating point numbers requires either a decimal point
(with at least one digit following), an exponent, or both. "

So you want "printed representation" to be replaced by "read syntax", is
that it? Could you say why?

Every data type has a unique printed representation, so a floating point number whose value is 1500 only has a printed representation "1500.0". This value has a fixed decimal point, not "either a decimal point".
