(I am conjecturing that the way this thing is constructed might be that we start with a few initial values and then iterate some process like: “if (condition) then next number is—previous number; else if (condition) then next number is 2sqrt(1-previous); else if …”. If so, then we might start with “nice” numbers—in fact the first two are 1.3 and 2.1 to machine precision—but that “niceness” might be eroded as we calculate. This is all very handwavy and there is at least one kinda-obvious objection to it.)
Have you tried writing programs that create sequences like the above to see how close they get? (Asking to avoid redoing work if the answer is yes.)
