Comment (by ncohen):

 Yo !

 > Actually, the product construction is what you are doing in #16227. You
 can see it as a particular case of Wilson construction.

 Oh. Cool, then. Must prove I am on the right path `:-D`

 Oh. And you want to transfer the "False" answer which means "that stuff
 does not exist" as an exception ? Then do you mind if we do that in the
 ticket which will change "availability" to "existence" ? It would be
 easier to not fix many conflicts in many patches. But it is a good idea
 and it will be implemented, be sure I don't say this because I don't want
 to do it. It *is* a good idea.

 To me it should raise an Exception. You just cannot trust these things to
 do what they should.

 > Make sense. I will open a ticket for that.

 Thanks. Add me in Cc when you do, of course `:-)`

 > No do not worry about this.

 Too late `:-P`

 that they are pretty similar.

 Hmmm... Not now please, I will probably have more questions to ask him and
 right now we are exchanging email about a construction of MOLS that I
 cannot reproduce. I implemented quite a lot of specific constructions of
 MOLS/OA during the last days. Besides #16241 #16236 and #16235 I have the
 following ready :

 {{{
 ~$ grep "^def " qd.py
 def OA_from_quasi_difference_matrix(M,G,add_col=True):
 def OA_from_wider_OA(OA,k):
 def OA_6_20(k,n,availability=False):
 def OA_7_21(k,n,availability=False):
 def OA_5_22(k,n,availability=False):
 def OA_7_60(k,n,availability=False):
 def OA_9_24(k,n,availability=False):
 def OA_6_26(k,n,availability=False):
 def OA_7_28(k,n,availability=False):
 def OA_6_30(k,n,availability=False):
 def OA_7_33(k,n,availability=False):
 def OA_6_34(k,n,availability=False):
 def OA_7_35(k,n,availability=False):
 def OA_10_36(k,n,availability=False):
 def OA_6_38(k,n,availability=False):
 def OA_7_39(k,n,availability=False):
 def OA_9_40(k,n,availability=False):
 def OA_10_48(k,n,availability=False):
 def OA_9_40b(k,n,availability=False):
 }}}

 Well. Except the last 3. Those are the ones we are fighting against at the
 moment `:-)`
