---------------------------+----------------------------
Yet another example where symbolic expressions are abusively considered
equivalent, even though `simplify()` has become a bit more careful.
{{{
sage: var('a,x')
(a, x)
sage: assume(a, 'complex')
sage: assume(x, 'complex')
sage: expr = a^(4*x) - (a^4)^x
sage: expr.is_zero()
True
sage: expr(a=I, x=1/2)
-2
}}}
