You demonstrated NOTING above. You completely ignored everything relevant (as usual).
The problem was noticed on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. It might still exist in 20.04 LTS because I haven't read about any fixes for it per-se.
How do you think the other YABU specific problem was found? The one where someone "fixed a compilation warning" and limited the calculations to 32-bits? Tabulation. The min and the max after hours/days/weeks of running never exceeded a 32-bit range.
Please. Never ever comment on my posts. You never actually read and simply don't know anything.
