Comment(by kcrisman):

 You are correct.  I was just updating, though, at this point.

 It gets worse, because some expressions that are definitely not 1 will
 simplify to just 1, because that is the branch that was picked.  See
 [http://ask.sagemath.org/question/767/simplification-errors-in-simple-
 expressions this ask.sagemath.org question], and Fateman's accurate
 response.
