   You say that the Rubi 4.6 antiderivative for log(2+x)^3*log(3+x)*x^3   
   contains six polylogarithm functions. The Mathematica result quoted on   
   the web page referenced in the original post to this thread contains   
   just three of them. This could be considered an advantage since you say   
   that the size of the result is similar.
