Comment (by vdelecroix):

 If we switch back, only the following fails (from
 `sage.combinat.tutorial`):
 {{{
 sage: Suits = Set(["Hearts", "Diamonds", "Spades", "Clubs"])
 sage: Values = Set([2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,
 ....:               "Jack", "Queen", "King", "Ace"])
 sage: Cards = cartesian_product([Values, Suits])
 sage: Hands = Subsets(Cards, 5)
 Traceback (most recent call last):
 ...
 AttributeError: 'CartesianProduct_with_category' object has no attribute
 'list'
 }}}
 and the reason is because you can not do the list of `Cards`...
 {{{
 sage: list(Cards)
 Traceback (most recent call last):
 ...
 AttributeError: 'CartesianProduct_with_category' object has no attribute
 'list'
 }}}

 There are of course other ways to fix it, but I found that it was the
 simplest. Using `FiniteEnumeratedSet` instead of `Set` in the tutorial
 seems unnatural to me since you want to keep it as simple as possible...
