No, that’s an absolutely natural extension.
What’s so special about things that have a
CD of 1?

Since, AFAIK, GCD was originally defined in the context of whole numbers,
you probably get what you deserve using it with non-integers.

It is odd, though, that even with comparison tolerance set to zero, +.
is not associative on fractional floating point values:

0.0000000000000036
0j16":,.+./|.4.57 4.34 4.44

It is commutative though:
(-:|:)+./@>{;~4.57 4.34 4.44
1
0j16":+./@>{;~4.57 4.34 4.44
4.5700000000000003 0.0100000000000655 0.0099999999999758

0.0099999999999758 0.0200000000000466 4.4400000000000004
I'm not quite sure what's going on here... maybe a built in epsilon
which is independent of comparison tolerance?
Thanks,

In case you are willing to accept labelling it a problem.
As I mentioned by altering the thread’s subject, yes,
this ain’t a bug. But there may be an opportunity for
improvement without sacrifice. Or so do I think.

As Devon and Henry suggest, it's the usual problem with "exact"
representation of reals.
