Comment (by arpitdm):

 Replying to [comment:75 tscrim]:
 To add to what Johan is asking,
 > - Kill with fire and holy water `is_*` methods. They just trivially call
 `isinstance`.
 Which "is_" methods are you referring to? I couldn't really find any that
 call isinstance directly apart from the is_SkewPolynomialRing. For
 example, ``is_finite`` returns true if the base ring is finite and has
 order 1 and false otherwise. And so on. Each have minor conditions that
 the user could of course check themselves if need be, but its not always a
 one line call and its not always obvious what methods are available to the
 user so that they may verify. Should such methods then still be removed?

 > - You are double importing things in the element class; only keep the
 `cimport`'s.
 Could you elaborate with a tiny example or something what you mean by
 this?

 Again, thank you for your help!

 Best,
 Arpit.
