Converting to full can save memory. Consider your cos(sparse) example.
It takes less memory to encode it as full than in a big sparse (BS)
matrix.

I have code which goes through the matrices generated to
remove zeros introduces this (and in other subtle) ways.
I guess I forgot to apply it in this case.
My current opinion is that I'll try to stay Matlab compatible
unless it is really non-sensical.
