Not sure what your point is; Maxima also generates LaTeX. E.g. randomly googled: http://hippasus.com/resources/symmath/maximatypeset.html http://hippasus.com/resources/symmath/maximatypeset.html Since Maxima was once world class, I would be surprised if Sympy has surpassed it yet, but I'm out of touch. Here's a comparison I just found: https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/SymPy-vs.-Maxima https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/SymPy-vs.-Maxima Sympy is presumably desirable if you're already using Python heavily.
