Scale can be useful if the computation leading to the result worked on different scale, than is used by the results (and thus expected errors are on a different scale than would be expected based on the results alone).
Scale can be useful if the computation leading to the result worked on different scale, than is used by the results (and thus expected errors are on a different scale than would be expected based on the results alone), i.e. an additional not scaling difference will be accepted, because | current - target | < eps_rel + eps_abs (while eps_rel = max(current, target) * epsilon, eps_abs = epsilon * scale) will be checked.
