> Giving maps a runtime penalty of random iteration in order just to punish devs who don't read docs is annoying Can you explain what you mean by "runtime penalty?" Last I checked, the iteration is only random wrt its starting offset; after that, it proceeds linearly through the buckets. So you only generate one random integer per `range`, which seems acceptably cheap.
