> I think we should be taking a more “batteries included” approach to language and library design. The entire reason we’re in this mess is because we’ve decided it’s ok or maybe even preferable if stdlibs are rail thin, rendering base languages near-unusable. Rust is one of the better languages when it comes to batteries included in it's stdlib. Even then, it's impossible to have a 100% coverage batteries included language because nearly everyone on planet earth has some different/unique use case for their code that doesn't fit a stdlib.
