Hello,
I was a bit surprised by the session below. Isn't it a bit confusing to
return 2 as a *unit* when the object is a polynomial over the *integers*?
Of course, "unit" in Factored might mean something else than "unit" in
integers, but
(a) it's still confusing and
(b) it's not exactly defined in the docstring of Factored, what "unit"
actually means.

(6) -> a := 2*(7*x+5)
(6) 14x + 10
Type: Polynomial(Integer)
(7) -> factor a
(7) 2(7x + 5)
Type: Factored(Polynomial(Integer))
(8) -> factors factor a
(8) [[factor= 7x + 5,exponent= 1]]
Type: List(Record(factor: Polynomial(Integer),exponent: Integer))
(10) -> unit a
(10) 2
(11) -> unit? unit a
(11) false
Type: Boolean
