As far as I can see, precision needs to be the same type as the return type since it represents uncertainty in the latter. That is, the range of possible return values would be [result - n*error, result + n*error]. Do you have a case in mind where this isn't true?
This is always true when you can define such an interval, which is not the case for an integral of a complex valued function ( no "<" on complex) .
