A few quirks & suggestions I came across:

Allow non whole buying amounts.
Currently only whole numbers (integers) are allowed when buying a product. Chemical wholesale is usually done in fractured numbers. Farm feed & fertilizer prices are usually in tonnage but allowing for 2.5 ton orders etc...

Even if you don't open it up in Sitefinity yet, the db and code relies on amount being of type integer atm and it shouldn't.

Discount can't be bigger than total.
Discount currently allows for a certain amount of money to be discounted, however if discount > total, then discount = total resulting in a free order and not a negative sales total.

Discounts should be applied before tax calculation.
In checkout summaries it looks silly and confusing, see screenshot attached.

Discounts amounts.
Discounts amounts shouldn't be represented by the $ sign, in a multi currency environment this is confusing.

Allow more than 2 decimals for pricing.
Gasoline prices are usually displayed with 3 digits behind the decimal seperator € 1,608. There are probably more industries this applies to and prices are stored with more digits in db anyway.

[ec_cart_adress] table doesn't get emptied.
After cart turns to order the table doesn't get emptied, nor when order is deleted and thus stores every single adress ever used in the system while serving no obvious purpose.
