Comment (by kcrisman):
Hmm, I'm not sure this is wontfix, though. I'm sympathetic to your
argument, but Doug's point that
{{{
sage: sin(1.2345678901234567890)
0.9440057250452665781
sage: sin(1.2345678901234567890).n()
0.944005725045267
}}}
seems good; you shouldn't ''lose'' precision, should you? (Forget about
hold!)
