in reply to Algorithm for cancelling common factors between two lists of multiplicands

I'm curious when I see a post like this as to why? Not only why do you have this data that you want to crunch in this way but also, what do you get out of these crunched numbers? I understand that often (myself included) we're restricted by NDAs to actually talk about the application of our work, but something like this just makes me wonder what's going on and why do I never come across any problems that this becomes a question?
