Nah, you are gaslighting yourself. You are also being generally
hostile in this thread and keep going ad hominem repeatedly for
no good reason. That is not healthy.
cppreference.com is a user manual, written by C++ users. g++ is
irrelevant.
You asked me (for God knows what reason) what the C++17 ISO
STANDARD says. Why can't you look it up yourself? Oh... I get
it. You are perfection, a priori… There is only one correct view,
and that is yours. I get it.
ISO standards are generally only available for free as drafts. I
gave you what a standard draft from 2017 says. I assume (perhaps
wrongly) that the final standard is close to this.

PAGE 949, full quote:
«
template<class T> complex<T> pow(const complex<T>& x, const
complex<T>& y);
template<class T> complex<T> pow(const complex<T>& x, const T& y);
template<class T> complex<T> pow(const T& x, const complex<T>& y);
Returns: The complex power of base x raised to the y th power,
defined as exp(y * log(x)). The
value returned for pow(0, 0) is implementation-defined.
Remarks: The branch cuts are along the negative real axis.

And that is something no sane person would not make a point of
announcing. If you choose to be ignorant, keep it to yourself.
Welcome to the kindergarten... actually most kids behave better,
to be honest.
