Wouldn't noise in the circuit mean it'd only be reliable to certain level of precision, anyway?
I mean, every irrational number used in computation is reliable to a certain level of precision. Just because the current (heh) methods aren't precise enough doesn't mean they'll never be.
You can always increase the precision of a computation, analog signals are limited by quantum physics.
