Different values of similar functions

In the following notebook the result of this line

_overlap(result.U_f, U_f_numerical).real, abs(_overlap(result.U_f, U_f_numerical))**2

(which is in the "Test numerical integration of GRAPE pulse") the result obtained seems very low. Why would the unitary obtained by the propagator function "U_f_numerical" be so different from that derived from the cy_grape_unitary function "result.U_f"?
They are both derived from "result.H_t". I am saying that they seem to be different based on the low value "0.11355125771393167" of the _overlap function. I may be totally wrong about this.
