> As Andrea points out, one of the big problems in this discussion is that those internal functions aren't actually consistent with one another - some of the logic is built into zned_parse_parameters, but fallback behaviour and additional checks are implemented ad hoc all over the standard library. This is exactly the issue we are battling here. One side wants to be consistent with inconsistencies (and tbh quite confusing) while the other side wants to allow userland implemented APIs to actually be consistent. I am not judging any of these sides but we are heading to a status quo here, for no good reason. We all know that this is a feature desired by a very large of our users. Let not block it.
