How could I get a format specifier to be different according to runtime variables?
My use case is showing a different time precision according to the server's tick interval (%.02f or %.03f) without having code duplication for the Format/FormatEx calls

lol I had no idea about that, anyway I though sourcemod using c to format, they don't .
I looked at the sm format function, I didn't find the feature you mentioned, anyway this is the case when the function take care for "%.2f".
