For small cases, e.g. 3x3, it does give a nonce error. (I haven't
tested past that.)

Not a problem for the guy who doesn't have to code it! :) It would
require row and column exchanges to change the pivot, which I'm guessing
is more work than Roger wanted to put into it.
But it IS misdiagnosed: domain error should mean the input is invalid,
while nonce error means the input is valid but unsupported by the
current code.

Sorry, when I said "misdiagnosed", I meant that it was detecting a
problem that wasn't actually there, not giving the wrong message.
Starting with a zero shouldn't be a problem.

You're right that it should be diagnosed as a nonce error rather than
a domain error. If you try to invert a sparse matrix with a 0 in the
top-left, you get a nonce error. The code just doesn't handle the
case of starting with a 0.
I would change the error to nonce error, but that doesn't fix the
testcase, and I don't think it's worth any effort to fix this bug in
the solver.

Most of the time, the test works. It's only if you run it
repeatedly, until there's a (random) zero in the (0,0) position,
that it fails. It looks like a misdiagnosed problem, or a problem
with initializing the solution.

Which suggests that maybe this is diagnosing an api handling issue?
(If the test used to work, x and y somehow got flipped?)
Thanks,
