For significant figures to be at all applicable you would need to express confidence with a completely different kind of scale. I am not going to round off 96% to “not even a probability”.
For my part I find it irritating. But it would certainly work better for 1 significant figure expressions. Although I suppose you could say it kind of relies on two significant figures (one on either side) to work at all.

I like the odds scale, myself.
