Good humor
To clear things up and prevent chaos, let us put an end to your mystery. It is just a straightforward rounding up on the screen.
If you click on the temporary dimension, it will show the fully dimensioned slope.
Looks like regular rounding to me. I'm sure there is a way to change to what decimal point/fraction it rounds to.
I was expecting Monty Python level of humor, leaving disappointed.
The fact that Revit puts this in the properties box as a default slope and won't use a real world dimension is the mystery. The fact the we pay thousands of dollars a year to rent Revit and have to correct this each time we create a roof is a pain.
You roof looks crooked in the elevation view. Is the boundary not a rectangle? That would explain the weird slope.
FYI: The default slope OOTB in an Architectural project template is 9" / 12".

Ah ha!!!. Thanks for the reply. I'll let our "BIM Guru" who created our template know. This has always been a PITA.
BTW, the crooked roof is a section through both roofs, obviously cut at a right angle, one with the weird slope and one at 7/12.
If you want to change the units
Go to project units, Adjust the units in the slope setting and the level of rounding required.
If you want to change the default roof slope
Commence the creation of a roof in your template or project
Now you will have your preferred roof slope set as the default roof slope for any new projects, previous projects will keep the previous default slope until you do the changes above.

Change the roof slope to your preferred roof slope.
