Comment (by jacob):
I decided on `exists()` for a couple reasons:
* While I like the any/all symmetry, the fact that they return different
types (qs/bool) is weird and not at all the same as Python's any/all.
* I think `if qs.exists(): ...` "scans" better than `if qs.any(): ...`
Neither big deals, but I thought I'd record my paint-choosing thought
processes for posterity.
