I am wondering what Sage's strategy is with regard to coercions. It thought that it would be reasonable that an element of a RealIntervalField should be coercable into a RealField but this does not seem to be the case.
sage: r=RealIntervalField(16)((1,2)) sage: RealField(16)(r) <type 'exceptions.TypeError'>: Unable to convert x (='[1.00000...2.00000]') to real number. Is this a design decision?
