Throwing an error would be much preferable. With this, it would be
possible to have two fields K and L, elements a,b in K and have
> {{{L(a+b)}}} not equal to {{{L(a)+L(b)}}}. That looks like something
that is going to be a perpetual source of problems and hard-to-find bugs.
All this should be fixed now.
