Comment (by ncohen):

 I'll have to live with this :-)

 Good idea. I prefer it in small case, but I want it to be somehow
 consistent.

 > In a similar vein you can say that Laplacian matrix should not be there,
 as it is a simple variation of the adjacency matrix, too...

 I would not say that, for there are books written about the laplacian
 matrix is .... well. More confidential.

 > It is there because we want to have readable code with readable
 documentation. It is syntactic sugar, if you wish.

 The only guy who uses this expression is Nicolas Thierry. If you want me
 to believe you are just trying to trick me into acting the way you want
 it, there is no better way.

 > Of course you can say that all syntactic sugar is a waste of time and
 space, but without it you end up with obscure unreadable implementation..

 Obscure? The 4 lines code?
