I suppose we should document "t" as meaning closed form (although it is far less common than no suffix). We perhaps could get rid of "t" with a modest amount of renaming (as far as I could tell from "show label *t"), although when I look at something like all the *19.21* theorems, finding good

Assuming we stick with the current linode set up, running us2 on the same linode is perhaps simplest. Whether that changes the cost, as far as I could tell from glancing at https://www.linode.com/pricing/ , depends on how close we are to the limits for RAM, storage, etc. Perhaps linode has an
