Yes, I could hair up Table, but that is missing the point somewhat.
The idea for provinding extreme values is that you don't have to
hair up the code.

In any case it seems I have my answer. I have some suggestions I can
try out, but writing up once own module for extreme values isn't as
easy as is suggested in the rejection of the PEP and there is probably
very little chance to get the PEP reopened.
