Display Trailing Zeros in Tibbles

How can I display trailing zeros when printing a tibble? For example, I would like mtcars[1, 5] to display as 3.90, mtcars[8, 7] to display as 20.00, etc. pillar.sigfig = foo does not seem to influence the printing behavior.

print(
  tibble::as_tibble(mtcars), 
  pillar.sigfig = 4
  )
#> # A tibble: 32 x 11
#>      mpg   cyl  disp    hp  drat    wt  qsec    vs    am  gear  carb
#>    <dbl> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl>
#>  1  21       6  160    110  3.9   2.62  16.5     0     1     4     4
#>  2  21       6  160    110  3.9   2.88  17.0     0     1     4     4
#>  3  22.8     4  108     93  3.85  2.32  18.6     1     1     4     1
#>  4  21.4     6  258    110  3.08  3.22  19.4     1     0     3     1
#>  5  18.7     8  360    175  3.15  3.44  17.0     0     0     3     2

Partial non-answer, with some hints for where you might find more info:

pillar.sigfig does influence the printing behaviour (see reprex below with, e.g. qseq for the first record is 16.46), but won't get you the trailing zeros you're looking for.

library(tibble)
x <- tibble::as_tibble(mtcars)

withr::with_options(
  list(pillar.sigfig = 4),
  print(x)
)
#> # A tibble: 32 x 11
#>      mpg   cyl  disp    hp  drat    wt  qsec    vs    am  gear  carb

#>  2  21       6 160     110  3.9  2.875 17.02     0     1     4     4

There's a pretty lengthy discussion of the trailing-zero behaviour here:
