"strictfp" ensures reproducibility (independent of HW), but does it entail (1 ULP) accuracy? If so, the answer seems to be "yes", at least when the minimal supported version is Java 17. However, the answer could be applicable sooner if we have benchmarks reporting speed and accuracy on Java 8 and 11 (cf. previous posts on the subject)...
