You'd get a 4-dimensional tensor if your definition was to use a direct 
tensor product, i.e. every dimension in the input arguments constitutes 
a dimension of the output.

The templates should be pretty straightforward to modify for 
broadcasting. What you'd need to do is first figure out the common 
dimensions, then pad everything to the common dimensions, and just 
change the calculation and return sections. This only needs to be done 
in a single place, namely, the generate_template.sh script.
