Well, it is in the sense that it _is_ a deficiency of built-in AAs for those who want to be able to use different implementations for different use cases, but it's not something that can actually be fixed, and having to use a library solution isn't exactly all that bad anyway, especially when most languages don't have AAs built-in in the first place. It's just a convenience feature. - Jonathan M Davis
