And then as I showed above, the "IRS math" says that once you start to draw from your Roth IRA, it will eventually become exactly 100% gain, no rounding necessary, when your withdrawal exceeds the original principal.
Maybe we need to complicate it more so that values greater than 100% are possible!
Say you have an account that you've added $100, then it grew to $200. If you removed $100, then it would be 100% gains. But if you removed $150, it would still be 100% gains. I think you should be able to add-back the $50 so that it would be $250/$200 = 125% gains
