Exactly. When people grow up, become adults and start using a CAS, it makes sense for them to drop the attitude "I don't need to know about rings since I didn't learn it in high school". So, why should Sage *not* require that the user sets up a polynomial ring when all what (s)he wants to do polynomial arithmetic?
