Comment:

 Hello,

 Could you change
 {{{
 sage: F = CombinatorialFreeModule(ZZ, ['a','b'])
 sage: FF = cartesian_product((F,F))
 sage: -FF.an_element() # random - only test that negative can be taken
 }}}
 to something explicit like
 {{{
 sage: F = CombinatorialFreeModule(ZZ, ['a','b'])
 sage: a,b = F.gens()
 sage: c = cartesian_product([a,b-2*a]) + cartesian_product([a,a])
 sage: c
 2*B[(0, 'a')] - B[(1, 'a')] + B[(1, 'b')]
 sage: FF = cartesian_product((F,F))
 sage: c.parent() == FF
 True
 sage: -c
 -2*B[(0, 'a')] + B[(1, 'a')] - B[(1, 'b')]
 }}}

 IMHO, the following fails but should work
 {{{
 sage: FF([a,b])
 Traceback (most recent call last)
 ...

 TypeError: do not know how to make x (= [B['a'], B['b']])
 an element of self (=Free module generated by {'a', 'b'} over Integer Ring
 (+) Free module generated by {'a', 'b'} over Integer Ring)
 }}}
