Bug with the noun form of integrate



'integrate   ... apparently does not inhibit SIMPLIFICATION, which

says that if   g is free of  x, then 'integrate(g,x)   is g*x.

Is this a bug? Probably not, in the sense that whoever programmed that
intended it to behave that way.  It is a feature.

Of course, one person's bug is another person's feature.
