I think take(fib, 10) is quite better.
I presume the API of those things will need about a year of usage to
become refined.

SPJ held a gun to my head and said: "take(10, fib)".
Who is SPJ?
I find "take(10, fib)" more readable: take 10 from fib. Same order.
I prefer the other way around.
There's another argument for take(fib, 10) that isn't just about taste:
if fib was an array, you could write fib.take(10).
Weren't there discussions to allow a.F(b...) for F(a,b...) in general?
