Topic: ring_exp needs ring

@Anne Baanen, I find the following proof disappointing. I didn't expect the second line.
example (n : ℕ) : 2 ^ (n + 1 + 1) = 2 * 2 ^ (n + 1) :=
begin
ring_exp,
ring,
end

There are also examples where ring requires another application of ring, right?

I've had to apply ring
twice in some situations but this is probably due to some metavariable bug

I know at least some instances of this were fixed: https://github.com/rwbarton/lean-homotopy-theory/commit/6f1ae4e1b22897cbd0d240926601b4005a9c9994#diff-e3c5121260ab4a6628611e784c1695edL90

Thanks for the report! It turns out norm_num
didn't get called in this case, which is fixed in this PR.
