Not really. Those aren’t necessarily intended to format data for display, and 
I’ve never used them for that. //...snipped...

That's a tad self-important innit? I'm sure the intended use for my vehicle's wheels was not to occupy the trunk, but when they puncture I still put them there. The fact that you never had a flat before is no argument against a wheel-bay in the trunk or a spare wheel.

printf() exists, for whatever "intent" got it there. Enhancing it should surely be merited by functionality of the function itself and not by arguing the function's own necessity or intent, non?
