Comment (by mmarco):
The problem is that we don't know, a priory, if a finitely presented group
is finite or not. And just trying to check it automatically can take
forever or exhaust the memory. That is why I proposed to go for the
abelianization, which is an invariant of the element that can be always
computed (and in a reasonably fast way). It still has some collisions, but
it is way better than having always a collision.
