Actually, I wasn’t really concerned about whether it was 2, 3, or 4 characters extra in those cases, it seems to me a small price to pay to have the base language have one consistent and generic method, instead of a couple Matlab legacy names (which I don’t want eliminated, just moved, along with some other Matlab functions that don’t have a good Julian name, such as cumsum/cumprod, to a Matlab compatibility package, so the only change for people who want those names would be to add using Matlab or some such, to their code).
