+// the [2,3) polynomial has max_rel_err=9.98e-6 which, near its edges (t near
+// ±0.5), causes ~6e-6 absolute error. After subtracting ln(x), the result
+// near x=1 or x=2 can be as small as ~0.002, giving ~0.45 ULP error -- which
+// fails the directed-rounding tolerance test. Polynomials for [4,5) and above
+// have max_rel_err <= 6.61e-7, keeping final error well under 0.1 ULP.
