In addition, I wouldn’t include algebraic structures in a *numerical* prelude since the cool thing about them is that they are so abstract that they are not only about numbers.

But the thing is that to have the numerical classes support the proper abstractions we want them to support, we need to define the algebraic structures as well. So the rework goes together...

Of course! It’s just that having algebraic structures in a separate algebra package is in my opinion a better idea than having them in a numeric prelude. Best wishes, Wolfgang
