Question: why DEtools:-DEplot gives different plot when using Pi vs. round(Pi) in trange?

Is the following behavior expected? using  t=0 .. 3*Pi  vs.  t=0 .. round(3*Pi) give different plots.  Why? Should not the plot be the same?

ps. do not know if I asked this before or not. I can't remember. Search in Mapleprimes is not easy.

ode := diff(y(t), t$2) + y(t)=0;
DEtools:-DEplot(ode, y(t), t=0 .. 3*Pi, y=-1 .. 1,[[y(0)=1,D(y)(0)=0]],linecolor=blue);

diff(diff(y(t), t), t)+y(t) = 0

DEtools:-DEplot(ode, y(t), t=0 .. round(3*Pi), y=-1 .. 1,[[y(0)=1,D(y)(0)=0]],linecolor=blue);
