Ah great! Didn't think of that. Thanks!
Yeah, once my current pull request is done
(https://github.com/sympy/sympy/pull/2829)
I might try to find some time to dig around with the metaclasses (I'm not
the biggest fan
of metaclasses in general - I usually find them quite confusing in practice)
Best regards
