I feel like probabilities are longer (80 as opposed to 3) and in some ways contain more information (1 out of a 100) than we can really state ~i1. In effect, we have few significant figures.
That said, the understandability of percentages may outweigh this benefit (-~i1).
Why not just use parenthetical probabilities where it’s useful? I’m pretty sure (80%) that this is more likely to catch on than your proposal.
