 > It seems to me that there are four mostly independent issues:
 > 1. the wrong `is_unitary()` method;
 > 2. the fact that the multiplication table is mutable;
 > 3. determining the correct category;
 > 4. implementing unique representation.
 > We could possibly fix issue 2 on this ticket (assuming it just takes a
 few lines), but also doing 3 and 4 on this ticket would be way too much in
 my opinion.  I would prefer just solving issue 1 on this ticket and
 opening separate tickets (possibly with dependencies) for issues 2, 3 and
 4.

 Then let us just fix 1 here and use the changes on the current branch as a
 followup ticket.
