Because the 20 methods that are available in the Image class cover about 95% of what people actually need. It's much more convenient and you can of course still use methods from the pdb module. Oh, and the docs you pointed at are hopelessly outdated and should probably be taken off-line. You better refer to the help you get in the Python console.
