Comment (by nbruin):
Replying to [comment:11 tscrim]:
> Plus if we ignore this, we could make a category for char 0 fields,
which IMO is a useful distinction and we make as a join `Fields() &
Sets().Infinite()`
??? Infinite fields are not necessarily of characteristic zero, see for
instance `FieldOfFractions(GF(q)['t'])`.
It could be something like `Fields() & AssociativeAlgebras(QQ)`, although
implementation dictates we should avoid referencing parametrized bases for
categories whenever possible (this case wouldn't be so bad, since QQ just
a single object. It's when characteristic p fields are made as `Fields() &
AssociativeAlgebras(GF(p))` that we have a problem.)
