I’m a little surprised by the reactions here and the sentiment against small packages that only do one or two things in a couple dozen lines.

This is not at all the reaction I received when I announced any of my packages which were of a comparable size and scope:

- [[ANN] Conjugates.jl](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/ann-conjugates-jl/36921)
- [ANN: ToggleableAsserts.jl](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/ann-toggleableasserts-jl/31291)
- [[ANN] NaturallyUnitful.jl Natural Units for Physicists](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/ann-naturallyunitful-jl-natural-units-for-physicists/24456/)

I would have liked to be told these packages don’t belong on the general registry if that’s how people felt…
