I think it's time to stop thinking in terms of "functions" and move forward
to "abstractions"

$s1 = 'string';
$s1->contains($s2);

$s1->indexOf($s2) === strpos($s1, $s2);

Why can't the strings be exposed as pseudo-objects ? users can choose to use
them as a regular strings or by calling methods on it.
