We know how to solve equations in a ring, and we know how to solve equations in a category. Can we somehow combine them, to solve equations in a ringoid? This would essentially be a way of getting rid of annoying distributivity, associativity, identity and zero goals.

Bonus points if we can somehow make the solver involve the word "polynomialoid".

Tbh this is almost easier than (commutative) rings, as we don't need to worry about any sort of commutation of composition when designing our normal forms.
