That seems a bit extreme.  One would hope that Guido and the rest of
the crew created the os module so people would use it instead of
resorting to other lower level hacks.  A quick find/grep of my own
code suggests that I import os more than sys.  I use it mostly for
os.path.* and os.environ.  I'm not sure there's a higher level way to
access them without putting more layers between your code and those
objects, which code would obviously have to call them anyway.

Did I just misread your comment?
