Your proposed functions would be implementable with the internal
functions but I think this approach doesn't provide a clean function
interface as it forces the user to evaluate the wanted value from the
returned array structure by using either the list() construct or
something like $key = array_first($input)[0];
I believe two functions with this interface will be confusing and less
intuitive for the developer.
If I use a function I expect it to give me a return value which I can
use without any further post processing $wantedValue =
fancyFunction($someInput);
