"A probability of 10^-90 can be written as 0.000..00001%, where there are 89 zeros between the decimal place and the 1."

That's 87 zeros, not 89, due to the percent sign. Not that it matters much with this specific number, but it's still a hundred times off and reflects a systematic error, and on a website on maths it kind of matters.
