Comment:

 Hi Nathann,

 I added a little commit of cleaning (and also replace the deepcopy by
 something more explicit) at `u/vdelecroix/16598`.

 The semantic of `copy=True/False` is currently not the same with
 `.blocks()` and `.groups()`. I decided (and you did not complain) that
 with `copy=False` it just returns a pointer to the attribute `._blocks`
 which means something on the integers... whatever the ground set could be.
 If you think it is bad, then we need to change it in `.blocks()` and
 `.points()`. Otherwise, change it in `.groups()`.

 In the function `is_group_divisible_design` it is assumed that the ground
 set is `{0, ..., v-1}` (which is just find since it is called with the
 internal data from `GroupDivisibleDesign`). It would be cool to specify it
 in the doc...

 What is the point of `matrix[i*n+j] != <unsigned short> -1` (in
 `is_group_divisible_design`)?

 Vincent
