I know. I suspected this a long time ago. That's why the whole FEM library
can be compiled either with the use of SP or not, by simply setting a flag
in CMake. If you want speed, you don't use SP. On the other hand, if you
need/want SP, you can still use them.
The previously described problems only occurred when the SP were used.
