We've been over this. Nobody asks when they should use writef
over writeln or readf over readln (which also share a common
role with common features).
Maybe the name of the function should then be "writes" and/or
"writesln" (instead of "print"), so that it can at least be found
from the same place in the documentation as other related
functions. The naming scheme would then also be consistent with
the rest of the write/writef-family. (Here -s stands for
"separated/spaced" just as -f stands for "formatted" etc.)
