It's clearly you who's confusing "standard library" with "UI toolkit". Some standard libraries come with a toolkit, like Java, but that's an exception rather than rule.
Not that it makes a huge difference in the discussion, but if you want to be smug about it then at least make sure you're right first.

Even Python, well known for its batteries-included std, do not provide this magical get_cursor_pos() function that you insist is found in stdlibs.
- seba_dos1 2y agoPerhaps Delphi and Visual Basic could count too if you squint? Can't think of anything else.
