Loading data from Power Query to model changes data (values)?

Good evening,

 

I have just noticed something is going on when loading data from Power Query into a model. There are some values which seem to be "harmonised" in the process:

Is there a setting I am not aware of which makes this happen?

Thanks.

Thanks, Marcus. Interesting reading, though it does leave me with a certain uneasy feeling. I think I would prefer PBI to keep the data integrity intact and make the "hamornisation" optional.
