Bug in Qlik Sense StDev function?

The StDev function doesn't seem to be calculating StDev the way I would expect. For example, it thinks the StDev of 0.05, 0.06, and 1.664 is ~0.93. It's actually ~0.76. This is just one example. Every calculation I have checked is returning an incorrect result. Am I missing something here?
