If the length of the name is any kind of issue, since the stdlib only contains modules (and packages), why not just sys.stdlib_names?
And since the modules can vary between platforms and builds, why wouldn't this be sysconfig.stdlib_names rather than sys.stdlib_names?
"Modules that were built into the stdlib" sounds more like sysconfig, and having an accurate list seems better than one that specifies (e.g.) distutils, ensurepip, resource or termios when those are absent.
