Hi,
I think I found a bug in Amputate related to evanescent (D-4)-dimensional momenta.
Minimal example is given below. After amputation, the result behaves as if the amputated object were D-dimensional. Expected behavior: Amputate should preserve the evanescent dimension information, i.e. a factor originating from DiracGamma[Momentum[q, D - 4], D] should remain associated with (D - 4) rather than being turned into a D-dimensional object.
