    Wow, that's horrifying! Good luck maintaining it!


Why is it horrifying?

Well, using __new__ in the first place is a big WTF (and yes, I know that sympy is pretty much stuck with it forever), but layering a hook to a whole new programming paradigm inside it is evil genius. Bonus horror points for introspecting __slots__ and doing such fundamental changes to solve a minor issue.

And BTW, has anybody checked the impact on performance? IIUC, that adds a non-trivial amount of work to every Add or Mul instantiation.

That being said, don't mind me. As long as I don't have to debug it, that code won't bother me.
