I don't.
And my intuition tells me that "waiting for a fraction of a second"
was only part of the problem, and Emacs support for floating points
was another.  :-)

Because the code doesn't accommodate them any more anyway.
Removing the arg (as opposed to just marking it obsolete) amounts to:

    -DEFUN ("sleep-for", Fsleep_for, Ssleep_for, 1, 2, 0,
    +DEFUN ("sleep-for", Fsleep_for, Ssleep_for, 1, 1, 0,
            doc: /* Pause, without updating display, for SECONDS seconds.
     SECONDS may be a floating-point value, meaning that you can wait for a
    -fraction of a second.  Optional second arg MILLISECONDS specifies an
    -additional wait period, in milliseconds; this is for backwards 
compatibility.
    -\(Not all operating systems support waiting for a fraction of a second.)  
*/)
    -  (Lisp_Object seconds, Lisp_Object milliseconds)
    +fraction of a second.  */)
    +  (Lisp_Object seconds)
     {
       double duration = extract_float (seconds);
     
    -  if (!NILP (milliseconds))
    -    {
    -      CHECK_FIXNUM (milliseconds);
    -      duration += XFIXNUM (milliseconds) / 1000.0;
    -    }
    -
       if (duration > 0)
         {
           struct timespec t = dtotimespec (duration);
