I would expect "contains" to take a element and check if it

I think "canFind" is just a weird name.
I agree on the latter point. As for "contains"... Well, if we
address the terminology, we should consider that ranges are not
really containers, therefore "contains" would be slightly
incorrect. Perhaps "encounters" or "isWithin"? :)
On a serious note though, "contains" is leagues ahead of
"canFind".
