That exactly was what was concerning me.
If it's not an issue within the Python framework, I'm happy.

Ah, not if a generator.py function is called in a tight loop and the
parameter check happens on every call.
But I guess that will just contribute to general subroutine call
overhead, so won't register as killing the performance for anybody.
Anyway, this kind of overhead, if it ever becomes an issue, should be
optimized out by the Python machinery, not by the programmer :-)
I was just covering my bases. I wasn't sure how performance-sensitive
sympy is. It was just that the somewhat lengthy unit tests got me
thinking about performance.
