contains only square-root branch cuts that approach the real axis in the limit $U/t \to \infty$.
Since there are no true poles on this surface, we can obtain more accurate quadratic approximants by
taking $d_q = 0$ and increasing $d_r$ to retain equivalent accuracy in the square-root term [see Eq.\eqref{eq:QuadApp}].
