oxc/approx-constant Suspicious

🚧 An auto-fix is still under development.

What it does

Why is this bad?

Approximate constants are not as accurate as the constants in the Math object. Using the Math constants improves code readability and accuracy. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Math for more information.
