Indeed. And a tibble doesn't, so there's a conflict. Nobody said data.frame works better than tibble. Actually, we all agree that the legacy behaviour sucks. But it exists, and causes conflicts when users expect a tibble to behave the same as a data.frame. It does not. -- Joris Meys Statistical consultant Ghent University Faculty of Bioscience Engineering Department of Mathematical Modelling, Statistics and Bio-Informatics tel : +32 9 264 59 87 joris.m...@ugent.be ------------------------------- Disclaimer : http://helpdesk.ugent.be/e-maildisclaimer.php [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel
