No, I think the idea of blessing a set of crates (with versions!) is better. The stdlib has a high burden of maintenance, and ideally should only be added to if changes are always backwards compatible. A blessed set is more flexible but still provides a high degree of reliability, unlike the present situation.
- steveklabnik 11mo agoThis has been tried a few times, and in practice, people prefer the current status quo.
- vacuity 11mo agoI'm not aware of the attempts, but at least the route of adding more to the stdlib seems even worse, although it may be popular.
- steveklabnik 11mo agoOh yeah, I would agree with that for sure.
