I ran it in the newRPL demo at 2007 digits precision, and the difference between both expressions came out 1e-2005, so I'd say they are equal at least up to the first 2000 digits.

Thank you for the confirmation - I hadn't tested to such precision.

The means by which the two expressions arose implies, I believe, equality & I'm not bright enough to demonstrate this equality.

More precision will (hopefully) corroborate equality, but a convincing reasoning would settle the matter.
