The rational parameter's pole divisor in a finite extension #
For a finite separable extension L / K(X), the image of RatFunc.X is
integral at every finite place. At a place P above infinity its order is
exactly -e(P), because X⁻¹ is the uniformizer of the base infinity place.
Consequently its complete pole divisor is supported exactly above infinity,
with coefficient e(P), and its height is [L : K(X)] by the
ramification--inertia degree formula.
These statements do not require the constant field K to be finite.
