why use "d * 1e-6"?
what about Double#compare?

- The value 1e-6 (which is 0.000001) is typically a reasonable threshold for floating-point comparisons, it's a balance between precision and practical usability.
- This approach helps avoid rejecting values that are within the acceptable precision for FLOAT types in databases like MySQL, while still accounting for the limitations of floating-point precision.

The exception message need improve. It needs to cover the comparative failure situation.
