yes, this works for numerical lists, but not for e.g. [[1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1], [1, 1, 1, 1, 1, -1, -1, -1], [2, -1, 2, -1, 2, 0, 0, 0], [2, 1, -2, -1, 0, -zeta8^3 - zeta8, zeta8^3 + zeta8, 0], [2, 1, -2, -1, 0, zeta8^3 + zeta8, -zeta8^3 - zeta8, 0], [3, 0, 3, 0, -1, 1, 1, -1], [3, 0, 3, 0, -1, -1, -1, 1], [4, -1, -4, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0]]
