There is stuff in place to avoid this right now. Tax adjustments for each line item are calculated to 3 decimal places, then added up, then rounded to 2 places for the tax total. Doing it this way is required in certain countries, like the UK.

It doesn't totally eliminate any difference there might be, especially for a large number of order/invoice items, but it is closer.
