I have no strong opinion either way but I can understand the
assumption by st0012 to some extent. For example, I personally
always seem to think more about .include? than .cover?, largely
because I simply use .include? a lot more. I once even added
some .partial_include? method to Enumerable (or somewhere else,
I don't remember ... was years ago).
The other thing is DateTime, Date, and Time. Personally I'd love
if we could have just one-ring-to-rule-them-all one day, perhaps
in ruby 4.0 or so - I think that is a partial complaint by Stan,
in the sense of the behaviour he showed (but I am assuming this
here). But again, I have no real strong opinion either way.
Would be interesting to ask Stan Lo whether he knew about
.cover? or not. :)
