My bottom line is the need to define at least one more product

I'd say a DSL for the scientific library would be best, likely
as a mixin, then the text could be processed and use it's own
rules and replace symbols with function calls?
//can mix regular operations and utf extras
a = scientificCalc!"(s * 4) × 4"(s); //possible call
formats?
mixin(scientificCalc("a = (s * 4) × 4"));
