31.8 K-Wing & 31.7 Deda Stem?

Does the .10mm really matter?

Bikes: '96 Litespeed Catalyst, '05 Litespeed Firenze, '06 Litespeed Tuscany, '20 Surly Midnight Special, All are 3x10. It is hilly around here!

No, the difference is "round-off" type. The "real" diameter is 1-1/4" or 31.750 mm. Most manufacturers round the number up to 31.8 mm while Deda rounds down to 31.7 mm. They are the same size.
