Thanks to everyone who replied to this post. So far Stathis and Bruno both
answered that both cases are equivalent.
Is there anyone willing to argue against either:

Yes. Euler identity is wonderful.
It amazes me also that it makes the square of any complex number into
a (non normalized) gaussian:
(e^ix)^2 = e^(-x^2)
I love also Euler even deeper identity relating the square of the

So we really do not know exactly what it is that we are

A nice problem !
However, it turns out that it is possible to sweep the infinities
