(Maybe) give an approximated result of the optimized expression #343

When doing an exponation, some rounding error may accumulate.

fifth root of i, power eleven times 20 gives i to the 44th ~ 1 - 9.799...

When the exponent is smaller the error does not appear yet upsilon still consider the answer as axproximate

fifth root of i, power eleven times 20/9 gives i to the 44th ~ 1

Having the precise results, that is 1, was the expected behavior.
