But with the @ operator in Python 3.5 it makes sence to have both matrix multiplication and linear algebra solvers in the core of NumP. Just consider: A @ B A.LazyInverse @ B A @ B.LazyInverse (Lazy matrix inversion with O(1) complexity does not exist right now, but could be added in the future.) To implement this efficiently, we need BLAS and LAPACK in the core of NumPy. It does not mean there would not be a linalg namespace for LU, SVD, et al.
