I do not agree. Although I come across one or two odd things myself from time
to time, I think the stdlib as a whole is great, usable and powerful.
The stdlib surely needs our attention. Instead of answering your post, I should
have been writing code and fixing bugs ...
I am glad you posted, both to get your rebuttal and know you are still
active. I had presumed that the two modules were written by different
people at different times and hence the different apis. I do not know
the details of either well enough to know how consistent they could be.
You are right that discussing can be a distraction from coding;-).
