On a more general note, if we change to a ufunc, it will get us stuck with sinc being the normalized version, where the units of the input have to be in the half-cycles preferred by signal-processing people rather than the radians preferred by mathematicians.
In this respect, note that there is an outstanding issue about whether to allow one to choose between the two: https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues/13457 (which itself was raised following an inconclusive PR that tried to add a keyword argument for it). Adding a keyword argument is much easier for a general function than for a ufunc. -- Marten
