Content
A possible resolution to this issue might be augmenting https://docs.python.org/3/library/fractions.html#module-fractions
with a short paragraph or section on alternative implementations noting that there is a tradeoff between speed and complexity (and assured correctness).  If sympy has faster rationals, list that, and any other python-accessible alternative we have confidence in.
