This is not the case. Floating point 1 means exactly 1, no more and no
less. Results that aren't exactly representable get rounded to values
that are, but this does not imply that the value once rounded is
inexact. The value that 1/3 gets rounded to is exactly equal to
6004799503160661 / 18014398509481984, no more and no less.

Treating floating point values as inexact would require an
accumulation of the range of error. Otherwise, it would no longer be
correct to say that 1.0 * 1.0 == 1.0. The result could with equal
correctness be the next floating point number after 1.0, or the
previous value before 1.0. Continue multiplying by 1.0 and the error
creeps larger and larger. The defined result of the operation,
however, is the exact value 1.0.
