Comment (by nbruin):
Also note that, as was remarked previously, the original behaviour of
multifactorial was consistent with the description in its documentation.
So, by changing the behaviour but not the documentation you are basically
introducing a bug. Ideally you'd include a reference to a literature
source to document which convention you are following, along with a
description of what the routine in sage does.
