> isn't the operation its own inverse depending on the parameter?

This is a function from ℝ² to ℝ. It can't be its own inverse; what would that mean?

It's a kind of superposition representation a la Kolmogorov-Arnold, a learnable functional basis for elementary functions g(x,y)=f(x) - f^{-1}(y) in this sense with f=exp.
