We study the lowest lying $\pi^+ \pi^-$ resonance R, bound by the long range Coulomb potential and destabilized by short range strong interactions mediating the dominant decay into two neutral pions. Parametrizing the corresponding partial decay width by $\Gamma (R \to 2 \pi^0) = 2/9 \alpha^3 \sqrt{m_{\pi^+}^2 - m_{\pi^0}^2} (\Delta a_{D} m_{\pi^+})^2$ the quantity $\Delta a_{D}$ depends within QCD & QED on four basic parameters : $\Lambda_{QCD}, m_{u} + m_{d}, \alpha, m_{d}- m_{u}$. We are interested here only in the limit where the last two parameters vanish $\Delta a_{D}^{0} = \Delta a_{D} (\Lambda_{QCD}, m_{u} + m_{d}, \alpha = 0, m_{d} - m_{u} = 0)$. While isospin invariance implies $\Delta a_{D}^{0} = a_{D}^{I = 0} - a_{D}^{I = 2}$ it is shown that beyond the first order expansion in the strong interaction the identities $a_{D}^{I} = a^{I}$, where $a^{I}$ denote the strong interaction scattering lengths, do not hold.
