I forgot about this (thank you for pointing it out again) and started
interrupted work again. But the answer was not what I expected. I
totally agree with the principles,


    "This is mainy issue of consistency: we build structures by
    recursion,  so trivial cases are necessary as base case.  Also, we
    like to  use generic algorithms and they may need such trivial
    operations.  So definitely they should be present. "



but my question is, which application/generic algorithm right now uses
that finite fields are trival  Differential rings? When want to
recursively make use of differentiate for UP('x, R), R a commutative
ring, then the differentiate should be already in every commutative ring
and fields, but it shows up for the first time in FiniteFieldCategory

And: With this principal answer one could add everything to everything,
so why not add a trivial total order x < y being false all the time?

And  here is my answer to your new question: Because I would like to
remove superfluous functions to make FriCAS more applicable to novices,
when one does )who FF(2,5), then one sees so many functions as
"differentiate" and then it is hard to spot the crucial ones.
