Comment (by vdelecroix):

 Replying to [comment:8 rws]:
 > For the symbolic solution see #19040. The question is if that makes this
 ticket a duplicate, or if your idea of simply removing checks can be
 implemented.

 I was wrong. Removing the check would work only for square matrices. You
 want to allow initialization from zero for any matrix (because the matrix
 space form a vector space). But for other scalars the matrices need to be
 square in order to form a ring.
