Comment (by novoselt):
No it should not and we had this discussion already!
Verbosity is more or less for debugging purposes and should be just plain
text.
The point of `run_simplex_method` is to construct application of the
simplex method and **return** the output in case you want to do something
with it. For example, the output from the dictionary method is combined
with extra stuff when you apply it to a problem. You could also combine
solutions of many problems for some purposes. If you don't like the name -
we can change it to something better. If you want just the final state
without output, we can do that too, say just put it in `final_dictionary`
methods. I'd rather not sprinkle `if construct_output: ...` in the code
for the sake of readability.
And the code should NEVER make any assumptions/adjustments for behaviour
in different interfaces, there is the output framework which allows
creating new frontends without digging in the whole Sage library and
tweaking things. Displaying side effects are quite unpleasant to deal with
for frontend maintainers (well, at least for me).
