I'm just going to go ahead and play stupid here. Why is it called chain? I
agree one more method doesn't break anyone's brain, but I think the
confusion comes when it is not clear what a method is for and when they
should use it. Can anyone just try to write a really quick API doc for
chain so that someone without knowledge of monads could read it? It should
hopefully be fairly obvious after reading the doc why the method is called
chain.
