Description
-
[x ] I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.
-
[x ] I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.
-
(optional) I have confirmed this bug exists on the master branch of pandas.
Code Sample, a copy-pastable example
import pandas as pd
ts = 1618556707013635762
pdf = pd.DataFrame([{"id": 2, "ts": ts}, {"id": 2, "ts": ts+1}])
pdf["ts"] = pd.array(pdf["ts"], dtype="Int64")
pdf.groupby("id").agg({"ts": "min"})Problem description
The above code will output 1618556707013635840 as the minimum which is incorrect.
Expected Output
Minimum should be 1618556707013635762. I suspect there is a cast happening somewhere during the aggregation. If we keep the ts column at int64 (i.e. use the non-nullable type) the result is as expected.

Potentially related issues
The issues below seem related, but from what I can see are slightly different:
- ENH: improve the resulting dtype for groupby operations on nullable dtypes #37494 seems like a more general problem where it is a priori unclear what the resulting
dtypeof the output column should be. For theminandmaxI would expect to get the samedtypeas in the input column. - BUG: groupby mean/median/var should always be float values #41137 For the present issue we actually want to keep the original precision and not cast to float.
