Comment (by jdemeyer):

 I consider this a bug:
 > It is possible to construct a ball whose parent is the real ball field
 with precision p but whose midpoint does not fit on p bits. However, the
 results of operations involving such a ball will (usually) be rounded to
 its parent’s precision.

 It causes too much confusion for example with the `round()` function. It's
 also too different from all other places in Sage which handle precision.
