Comment (by nthiery):

 Grumble, my comment never made it through. Well, it's kind of late now,
 but since I had typed it in ....

 Replying to [comment:5 VivianePons]:
 > actually there is a strong use case: in FindStat we need the method to
 consider the map between posets and graphs. When people look for a stat on
 posets, this maps allows us to also look on graphs.

 not everyone thinks of transforming the poset into a Hasse diagram.

 I would find more natural to have hasse_diagram be a combinatorial map
 from posets to directed graphs (possibly with an alias to_digraph, or just
 digraph for consistency with crystals). And to have another combinatorial
 map from directed graphs to graphs. The composition of the two maps is not
 super canonical.

 Have fun at Findstat Days 1!
