And maybe suggest that any other usage is considered "misuse" and is
"strongly discouraged or bad things will happen"... :) Basically I
think it should make it very clear that it's there for convenience.
I would like to avoid repeating what is already said in Collection
class>>#from:'s docstring. Is there a way to document Dictionary in a
way that is less confusing but avoids explaining what is already
specified elsewhere?

Failure to imagine vast possibilities usually stems from a lack of
imagination, not a lack of possibility.
