Right, "fitting" may be the better wording. And concerning the necessity of
the doctrine of immaculate conception: 13th till 19th century (before pope
Pius IX. turned immaculate conception into a dogma), the Dominicans provided
alternative facts, namely "Sanctificatio Mariae" instead of immaculate
conception. Whereas virginal conception is accepted doctrine in Catholicism,
Protestantism and Islam, immaculate conception is dogma in Catholicism, not
accepted as a dogma in most other branches of Christian theology, and
irrelevant to Islam.

So, back to SageMath, hoping to not hurt people's feelings: According to
the scripture (SageMath documentation), in
   sage: f(x,y) = x^2+y
x and y are virginally conceived by the symbolic ring through the power
of the preparser, which is commonly accepted by SageMath's followers.
However, the scripture does not assert that the symbolic ring is free of
sin (bugs), and thus not all followers agree on the immaculate conception
of the symbolic ring.

Best regards,
Simon
