Division of numeric literals is an hardcoded behavior of Python
interpreter, and a hardcoded behavior of Python language itself.
So it is not possible
OK--thank you to both of you for the advice. I think Jonathan's method is
inclined towards interactive use but allows global settings. Chris's method
works for my inline code methods (but wish they had global variables
there!).
Much appreciated

Enter the exponent as `(S(1)/4)` or the power as `root(m*w, 4)`.

Within an IPython session this can be achieved with `sympy.interactive
.session.enable_automatic_int_sympification(*shell*)`. See the
documentation:
https://docs.sympy.org/latest/modules/interactive.html#module-sympy.interactive.
An alternative is to use Algebra_with_Sympy
