Comment (by nbruin):
Replying to [comment:3 duenez]:
> The problem with SR not being reported as a field (or integral domain)
is that several Linear Algebra methods require this behavior. For example
solving a linear system with symbolic variables, eigen-value computation,
etc. Or at least that was the original reason why I raised this issue. It
might no longer be true.
I have little doubt it still is. I suspect that one should just be
pragmatic with SR and just keep fingers crossed when trying computations
with SR. If they succeed: great! The answer might even be correct. If not:
formulate the problem in another way.
