Hi Nils,
That's a very good point. Thanks!
Hmm, kind of annoying. The point of this syntax was to aim for something
uniform and remove stuff from the global name space by using the
categories as single entry point. But I agree, as is that's not
acceptable. Or at least not acceptable from a programmatic point of view.
For interactive use, that would be ok; I don't expect users to create by
hand billions of free algebras.
Let's think more about it!
A variant could be `Algebras.Commutative.free(QQ,4)`, but one need no
check how robust this can be made.
Cheers,
Nicolas
