Thanks for the reference, Lucas.

I wasn't familiar with toolz and it looks similar to a package I'm
contributing to with a similar purpose of filling holes in the standard
library, as such shouldn't some of this stuff be targeted for integration?

I'm a bit dubious about the pypi suggestion as packages are being regularly
poisoned with malware ( e.g. New KEKW malware infects open-source Python
Wheel files via a PyPI distribution | SC Media (scmagazine.com)
<https://www.scmagazine.com/news/devops/kekw-malware-infects-open-source-python-wheel-files>
)
and support issues keep happening with package management tools.

As a result, I have been hesitant to onboard new packages without at least
a code review (not that would help me against future deltas) and would
prefer to import as few modules outside the standard library as a result.

Also, I was under the impression that Python was "batteries included" so
why wouldn't it include:lazy, currying, monads...directly in the standard
library?
