Comment (by tscrim):

 Replying to [comment:58 jhpalmieri]:
 > It seems like it would be better to fix `repr_lincomb` than to add new
 code which reproduces a lot of its functionality. How should a user decide
 which of these to use, if they're both available? But maybe I'm missing
 something.

 I haven't checked to see how many doctests would need to be fixed, but I
 was worried it was a lot. I'll look into it.

 > I meant the honest center. For exterior algebras, this is easy: it's the
 evenly graded part. For Clifford algebras, these are finite dimensional,
 so what happens if you try to solve the linear algebra problem (find all
 solutions to `[x,-]=0` for all generators `x`)? You could try to do the
 same with the supercenter.

 Ack, you're right. I really shouldn't try to do math in my head late at
 night. I'll work the centers into this ticket as well.
