)abbrev category FRETRCT FullyRetractableTo
++ Author: Manuel Bronstein
++ Description:
++   A is fully retractable to B means that A is retractable to B, and,
++   in addition, if B is retractable to the integers or rational
++   numbers then so is A.
++   In particular, what we are asserting is that there are no integers
++   (rationals) in A which don't retract into B.
