There is no problem with reducible polynomials, only with non-squarefree
polynomials. The correct statement is:
If your actual polynomial lies in the squarefree locus, it is possible
to increase precision enough so that a ball around it lies entirely
within the squarefree locus. But if the actual polynomial is not
squarefree, any ball will intersect the squarefree locus.
