It's not a bug since reduce() here expects a polynomial not a number. Use R(1) or R.one() instead of 1.

[user202729]

But 1 can be naturally converted to R(1). Besides, it does work with univariate polynomial ring

sage: R.<x> = QQ[]
sage: R.ideal(x).reduce(1)
1

In any case I see no harm converting the argument to an element of R inside .reduce() if it isn't already one. Would make it more convenient to use.

Then it should be RFE not a bug.
