Comment (by kcrisman):

 > Pari's symblic is not up to this. I'd consider it a bug that there is no
 default precision to SR series results (like with `PowerSeries`), so yes,
 if your last example would work without the `16` this ticket would rather
 be about my example `sin(1+4*x^2)`---it should simply work like `series()`
 and give back one instead of SR.
 Hmm, that's an interesting suggestion.  One could imagine it's a bug the
 other way around, but I have no vested interest in this - I think a
 default for either one could be useful, in principle, and (importantly)
 wouldn't be backward-incompatible.   But what would the default be?  It's
 hard to imagine one non-arbitrary... hmm.  What do Mathematica and/or
 Maple and/or Magma do with this?  If there is a standard one could use
 that.
