Issue occurs when trying to solve for 'y' the following:

(((-abs(-y^2+1/2)-y^2+1/2)^(1/3)+(-y^2+1/2+abs(-y^2+1/2))^(1/3))*((1/2)*i*sqrt(3)+1/2)^2)^3-1+2*((-abs(-y^2+1/2)-y^2+1/2)^(1/3)+(-y^2+1/2+abs(-y^2+1/2))^(1/3))^2*((1/2)*i*sqrt(3)+1/2)^4

which is the result from substituting

x = ((-abs(-y^2+1/2)-y^2+1/2)^(1/3)+(-y^2+1/2+abs(-y^2+1/2))^(1/3))*((1/2)*i*sqrt(3)+1/2)^2 into -1+2*x^2+x^3

Even if this doesn't work, it'd be better to just throw the error, that way I can catch it and do something when this is happening.
