| Everybody's got a different idea of what it means for a library to be "friendly" and "fully-featured" though. It's probably better to keep the standard library as minimal as possible in order to avoid enshrining bad software. Programming languages could have curated "standard distributions" instead that include all the commonly used "best practice" libraries at the time. |
