Derivation

1. Split input into 2 regimes

2. if (/.f64 (-.f64 beta alpha) (+.f64 (+.f64 alpha beta) 2)) < -0.99999999973289877

   1. Initial program 60.1

      \[\frac{\frac{\beta - \alpha}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} + 1}{2} \]

   2. Simplified 60.1

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\mathsf{fma}\left(\frac{\alpha - \beta}{\left(\beta + \alpha\right) + 2}, -0.5, 0.5\right)} \]

   3. Taylor expanded in alpha around inf 3.1

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\frac{1}{\alpha} + \frac{\beta}{\alpha}\right) - \left(2 \cdot \frac{1}{{\alpha}^{2}} + \left(3 \cdot \frac{\beta}{{\alpha}^{2}} + \frac{{\beta}^{2}}{{\alpha}^{2}}\right)\right)} \]

   4. Simplified 0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\frac{1}{\alpha} + \frac{\beta}{\alpha}\right) - \left(\frac{2}{\alpha \cdot \alpha} + \mathsf{fma}\left(3, \frac{\beta}{\alpha \cdot \alpha}, \frac{\beta}{\alpha} \cdot \frac{\beta}{\alpha}\right)\right)} \]

   if -0.99999999973289877 < (/.f64 (-.f64 beta alpha) (+.f64 (+.f64 alpha beta) 2))

   1. Initial program 0.2

      \[\frac{\frac{\beta - \alpha}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} + 1}{2} \]

   2. Simplified 0.2

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\mathsf{fma}\left(\frac{\alpha - \beta}{\left(\beta + \alpha\right) + 2}, -0.5, 0.5\right)} \]
3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.

4. Final simplification 0.2

   \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;\frac{\beta - \alpha}{\left(\beta + \alpha\right) + 2} \leq -0.9999999997328988:\\ \;\;\;\;\left(\frac{1}{\alpha} + \frac{\beta}{\alpha}\right) - \left(\frac{2}{\alpha \cdot \alpha} + \mathsf{fma}\left(3, \frac{\beta}{\alpha \cdot \alpha}, \frac{\beta}{\alpha} \cdot \frac{\beta}{\alpha}\right)\right)\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\mathsf{fma}\left(\frac{\alpha - \beta}{\left(\beta + \alpha\right) + 2}, -0.5, 0.5\right)\\ \end{array} \]
