If I don't mention the Smith's algorithm here then I wouldn't have to add that. 
But this is what the Smith's algorithm comment indicates:
"The method used her tends to avoid arithmetic overflow or underflow. Such 
spills could otherwise occur when squaring the component parts of the 
denominator if the usual method were used.”
