I'm not sure the right place to post this, but I can't seem to axis my trac
account and the forgot password link isn't working, I've previously used it
with the username "Isaac" and this email adress. So I have no idea what it's
problem is.

Comment (by sanda):
I contacted Stefan privately if he could remember why \newcommandx is not
used always and \def is used for all math macros that have no option:
"
that's a very good question. My memory is weak, but I believe there were
cases where \newcommand(x) was fragile.
I googled and found a very old thread of mine:
https://lyx-users.lyx.narkive.com/zmXbAJi7/macros-with-optional-arguments-
lyx-1-6-1
Could be that that was the reasoning, that \newcommand could not override
other macros of the same name. But maybe there was more. "
