 Implicit bases are bases that contains the product of all its elements.
 This makes these bases particularly useful to work with [`AlgebraElement`](@ref)s with supports that can not be reasonably bounded.
 Note that these bases may not explictly store its elements in memory as they may be potentially infinite.
+The elements of the basis are iterated in increasing order according to `comparable(object(b))`.
