Thank you for spotting this, the exposure operation encoded a maximum
gain of 100.0 when avoiding a division by zero, this arbitrary limit
has been increased in git master:
commit a1c2b693e92c07c3af8b6a632fe5228422d23f3b
Author: Øyvind Kolås <pippin@xxxxxxxx>

exposure: adjust clamping to avoid division by 0
The code contained MIN (reciprocal, 0.01) to avoid division by
zero, resulting
in a maximum gain of 100.0, this changes it to a maximum gain of 1000000.0,
with some non-photographic sources such gains are entirely reasonable.
