Unless I'm misreading all of the additional roots are for the case
where A=0. IOW Wolfram is saying "hey if by any chance A=0 then this
would be a quartic and I would know how to get the roots of that". My
interpretation then is that if A != 0 so that it's a true quintic then
Wolfram can't solve it.
