When using the
DebugOnly
module to find NaNs, I'm finding that we're executing Broadcast expressions inImplicitEquationJacobian
due topreconditioner_cache
. Per its doc string, it's role is not to initialize data, but only to allocate data, so I think usingsimilar
here is more appropriate, as the broadcast expression may contain uninitialized data. To do this, I've addedsimilar
support on Broadcasted objects with field and stencil styles.I think it's pretty clear that we either need to fix the doc string, or fix the code, because they are inconsistent.
