Thanks for your reply!

This is probably not the case, for example in D71706 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D71706> `pow` is allowed to be transformed to `sqrt` if `afn` exits. But I agree it depends on the interpretation since the text now is opaque. Maybe we can raise this question up in the dev mailist? Thanks again!
