Comment(by nthiery):

 Hi!

 Is the alias N really needed? It pollutes the namespace of all elements,
 and broke some code on the Sage-Combinat queue (in that particular case,
 it was overwriting a field of a gap3 record element). Well, I guess we can
 find a workaround but still having n and N and numerical_approx seems like
 a waste.

 Cheers,
                         Nicolas
