False Positives for the Identity Matrix #442

Description

MathCAT 0.7.5

Issue

MathCAT incorrectly calls certain matrices the identity matrix. For example, the Pauli matrix $\sigma_z$ is incorrectly verbalized as "the two-by-two identity matrix":

$$ \sigma_z = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0\\ 0 & -1 \end{bmatrix} $$

I believe I have encountered this issue in several matrices where the diagonal elements were some combination of ones, zeros, and negative ones.
