I understand at least some of the motivation and potential advantages,

I am not at my computer right now, so I will respond in more detail later. But I wanted to address your statement above:

I see a NEP as an opportunity to discuss and flesh out an idea, and I certainly hope that you there's no reason for alarm.

I do not expect to know whether this is a good idea before discussions conclude, so I appreciate your feedback. If we cannot find good support for the idea, with very specific benefits, it should simply be dropped.

But, I think there's a lot to learn from the conversation in the meantime w.r.t. exactly how streamlined people want NumPy to be, how core functionality can perhaps be strengthened by becoming a customer of our own API, how to optimally maintain sub-components, etc.

Best regards,
Stéfan
