Comment:
`7.0714098800910119e-313` is a denormalized floating point number and
Karma currently does not support printing those. Nevertheless, the fact
that you're seeing a stack overflow is definitely a bug which I will try
to fix asap.
Independently, because of it being denormalized (the smallest normalized
value is `2.2250738585072014e-308`) it does not make any sense to request
12 digits precision anyways, as only 15-5 == 10 digits precision are left
for this number.
