Comment (by ncohen):

 > but `labels` are meant to be user-defineable

 Whaaaat? I don't know what makes you think that. `labels=False` makes
 sense to me. There is nothing in that word that says 'user-defineable' or
 anything. If you want to change the labels, `.relabel` is there for you.

 > Calling a set of labels chosen by the implementation `labels` is
 unhelpful and uninformative, to say the least.

 It just means that the structure is not integer-labelled. Any way I cannot
 care less: if you chose to overlook that all our functions will have as
 many ways to call the same thing (labels, coordinate, ... do you see this
 end?) then I will not fight again, it's your win anytime because you are
 the reviewer and by Sage's laws you can make my life hell until I give up.

 So add a commit.

 Surprising. Might be because we are multiplying the elements of the ground
 set using Sage, which is always slow for ... well, everything. Perhaps the
 way `PG` is called changed in the meantime, I do not remember. If you feel
 bad about it you can write a ticket, it's always good to see speed
 improvements.
