Comment (by rbeezer):

 The `algorithm='symmetric'` keyword is meant to allow the routine
 accomodate both base rings (RDF/CDF) while also allowing a user to specify
 that a matrix is known to be symmetric.  In this case, the conversion from
 CDF to RDF is made by the routine and then the !SciPy behavior that Volker
 notes will take place.

 Any suggestions on making the docstring clearer?  Maybe saying "then
 applies the algorithm for Hermitian matrices" should be stated
 differently?
