Given that most popular languages seem to use the word "every" or "all" in
the name of their analogous functions, I think it's very valuable to honor
that legitimate user expectation if at all possible. I do believe the Swift
API naming guidelines are not so rigid as to prohibit such a name.
While accurate, "onlyContains" lacks that familiarity. (A Google search of
"onlyContains" turns up: "Study finds Subway's chicken only contains about
50 percent.")
