  /- This element of `L` is exactly what we want: we simply need to show the first row of the
    evaluated matrix is `K`-linearly independent. But since the other rows are obtained from the
    first row by applying a `K`-endomorphism, it suffices to show that the columns are linearly
    independent, which follows from the nonzeroness of the evaluated determinant. -/
