I don't know what "everyone" "would love" to have "always available".
I'm baffled that anyone ever pretends to (know).

"No, but nobody likes it."
"What?"

If cl-py is not the right place for personal exchanges, then get
going.

I am seeking a rational, informed, constructive evaluation of the
merits and demerits of 'ext'.

It's also productive to characterize trends of things in the std.
lib., and I could even see that discussion arising from this one.
It's just up to us whether it's in the same thread or not.
