That makes sense, but is when the player has played 0 games it shows 33.33% for all of them. Is that like a default?

Maybe the people you lost to wasn’t that good so they put an extra 1%
No math is good enough for chess.
The Elo ratings, for an example, doesn't work out at all with 0% and 100% scored points! one has to make a score between 1% and 99% so it makes any number. The FIDE, the USCF and others, use "tricks" that have got nothing to do with maths whenever they stumble upon such cases (0% and 100%)
For maths details regarding the Elo rating system, see here:
