Notes#

In LaTeX physics.sty 1.3, \cosine is the original \cos saved with \let, a plain operator that grabs nothing, while the redefined \cos grabs a following [...] power and (...) argument. The rule renames only a bare \cosine, one not followed by (, [, or a brace group; a \cosine that carries scripts is bare. The renamed command gets the empty argument slots of the active \cos record. In faithful, named-fn-to-operatorname rewrites the skipped branches to \operatorname{cos} and keeps the delimiters literal. Touches-only convergence: every Applied removes one bare \cosine; non-matching nodes return Skipped. The produced command and canonical reference use the physics record, which overrides the base definition whenever this rule is enabled.
