Comment (by nthiery):

 > Question: Why is that method not overridden for the different
 realisations of `MacdonaldPolynomials`?

 Because the coercions are registered explicitly during the initialization
 of Sym / macdonald polynomials. This is better because it leaves maximal
 freedom to the coercion model (e.g. the coercion model can't do
 transitivity with _coerce_map_from).

 Cheers,
                           Nicolas
