Hi again

[replying to self]

I didn't make myself clear here.  What I meant to ask was, I think,

"Look, sage doesn't seem to know this fact about psi().  Does sage
store a list of known facts about the psi function anywhere?

Because, if it does, I would like to suggest that the following list
of identities
be added to  sage's list, so that this simplification works nicely".


best wishes

Robin
