I haven't read all the recent list replies yet but I think this sort of

If the book currency is USD (or AUD or any other third currency) then the
currency conversion becomes EUR<->USD<->RUB. The double conversions involved
to the EUR and RUB may introduce scope for rounding errors to produce
slightly different results on conversion back.
It also assumes that EUR->USD-> RUB will give the same result as EUR->RUB.
Where the exchange rates are good to 6 significant figures, this appears to
be OK using today's figures
(https://www.xe.com/currencyconverter):
1 EUR=75.3052 roubles
1 EUR =1.12958 USD
1 USD = 66.6667 RUB => 1 EUR = 75.3054 RUB.
is certainly part of the reason why the TB is going wrong.
Congratulations on your prescience :)
