P.S.
Choose d^2 inspite inspite (4 d^2 E^2 ProductLog[-1, -(1/(2 d E))]^2)
is usefull for small d where d^2<<(4 d^2 E^2 ProductLog[-1, -(1/(2 d 
E))]^2)
but if 
d>9819237619956432205457343790613036173054804524960328839001963304957144\

4555234904932970275931679797061927319629
function d^2 is worse than (4 d^2 E^2 ProductLog[-1, -(1/(2 d E))]^2)
what is possible to check by
FindRoot[(4 d^2 E^2 ProductLog[-1, -(1/(2 d E))]^2) == d^2, {d,
   10^210}, WorkingPrecision -> 1000]
but no possible to chech by Plot (becausePlot working only 10^100 range 
in x axis)
Also are disagreemnet because Plot and exact numerical values of crosses 
function d^y with (4 d^2 E^2 ProductLog[-1, -(1/(2 d E))]^2)
compare e.g.
Plot[{(4 d^2 E^2 ProductLog[-1, -(1/(2 d E))]^2), d^2.05}, {d, 1,
   10^100}]
where d^2.05 yet not cross with (4 d^2 E^2 ProductLog[-1, -(1/(2 d E))]^2)

but croos point is range of 10^80
FindRoot[(4 d^2 E^2 ProductLog[-1, -(1/(2 d E))]^2) == d^2.05, {d,
   10^210}, WorkingPrecision -> 1000]
