Comment:
Obvious question: what is the performance impact of the earlier CM checks?
It seems that the old code was careful to postpone CM checks.
All the methods where you added a check for CM should have a doctest for
the case when there is no CM. Many don't have such a doctest.
Like I said before, this should be replaced by real caching (you
implemented the caching, but forgot to remove this part):
{{{
#!diff
+ self._has_cm = E.has_cm()
+ self._has_rational_cm = E.has_rational_cm()
}}}
I think this comment is not very clear:
{{{
#!diff
+ # See #19229: can cause problems if this name is 'a' but it has
to be something!
+ F = NumberField(y**2 - a, 'grnf_a')
}}}
