I have just learned one important thing today, that all *rcp*-based instructions need at least one Newton-Rhapson iteration to restore accuracy, otherwise, it loses 50% accuracy. Take note that the original FLOAT32 has 23-bits in the significand. Without any Newton-Rhapson, you are left with only 11-bits. Ouch!
