Trouble fetching decimals in Laravel 11 Filament V3

This is probably (?) an issue I missed after upgrading to Laravel 11, but I'm getting this error on trying to fetch (not save) decimal data from DB in Laravel 11 Filament V3:

Brick\Math\BigDecimal::toScale(): Argument #1 ($scale) must be of type int, string given, called in /app/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Database/Eloquent/Concerns/HasAttributes.php on line 1432

Triggered by

$this->form->fill(auth()->user()->companies->find($companyID)->relationship->attributesToArray());

I already checked the documentation (https://laravel.com/docs/11.x/upgrade#floating-point-types) and updated my migration (https://laravel.com/docs/11.x/migrations#column-method-decimal):

$table->decimal('from', total: 4, places: 3)->nullable();
$table->decimal('to', total: 4, places: 3)->nullable();

Model is unchanged but I don't see anything wrong with it

    protected $casts = [ 
        'from' => 'decimal:4,3',
        'to' => 'decimal:4,3',

TablePlus says columnType is decimal (4,3), so there's absolutely no way I'm passing a string here. It used to work just fine (populating forms with data)...

Any help would be much appreciated!

 protected $casts = [ 
        'from' => 'float',
        'to' => 'float',

This worked, but I don't understand why would there be a decimal type (https://laravel.com/docs/11.x/eloquent-mutators) if it ends up saving a string, what am I missing?

4 years ago someone said "PHP doesn't have a decimal type" but I don't understand why make one in the first place and why it worked before?

Also now it retrieves "2.000" as "2." and that's not pretty at all.
