Afaics, there already is lots of confusion — that’s the reason for me to write a sequence of posts in this topic, instead of an Optional ;-) The word „flatten“ is a quite honest description, so I wonder why words like filter, remove, ignoring or skipping should be used instead. „Compact“ would be less irritating, but I could imagine that it indicates something like eliminating repeated occurrences. Tino (I’m quite close to attach a hand-drawn illustration of the flatMap process — I don’t think you want that to happen ;-)
