fpu support was kind of like hd support back in the day but less critical. when a large percentage of amiga users had unexpanded a500s and a1200s or 2000s requiring fpu would cut out a large number of users and lots of potential profit.
68k cpus do integer math quite well so most programs could make do without fpu. libraries should use them though, if available.
iirc divide was the only 16bit math instuction the 68000 had (16bit divided by 16bit resulting in 32bit answer). many programmers especially demo coders and other assembly people used tables.
