I think it's more important to give the simpler names to the functions that are more commonly used. So I would keep the name array-slice* for the function that returns #0(a), in spite of logic. Of course, that's one reason why I don't like array-slice too much! > Had I to look it up by name without any idea of what to look > for, I'd never come up with array-from, whereas I'd have a faint > chance of coming up with array-slice; that said, the most > ergonomic choice would still be (an extension of) array-ref et > al. or some close relative. Yeah, I do see your point.
