Comment #2 on issue 3638 by [email protected]: Automatic series expansion while applying a function?
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=3638

Automatic evaluation is very difficult to have not happen

Sympy already has some kind of it (present eval() methods for functions). The question is up to which degree we should keep unevaluated expressions.

Is there any real reasons to keep things like log(1+O(x)) and not evaluate this to O(x) just like sin(0)? Or keep powers like (1+x+O(x**2))**3? (n.b.: attached patch doesn't touch powers.)

And that's not to mention that this can be an expensive operation in general

Hmm, why in this case?
