I am sorry for my last post being so brief. I intended to update the
bug with a little bit more of an explanation.
It is not a good idea to use the "same as" comparison operator with
floating point numbers unless you can explicitly cast the value into a
specific format. In this case, as you suggested, casting 1e-05 to a
string ("1e-05") will yield the intended result.
Here is some additional information:

I am marking the bug invalid since this is not really a bug.
