For some reason it is defined as \lbracket in MkIV and undefined in

\lbrack. Otherwise, we can also have both \lbrack and \lbracket
defined.
Any thoughts?
Either both or the long form only, memory is no longer a reason to
create funny names like \infty (can we add \infinity please)
I strongly disagree with the idea not defining the forms \lbrack and
\lbrace. Fact is that Knuth defined them in the base of TeX's math. We
should at least stay compatible with that. And please do not also kill
\infty. Why then not also change \equiv to \equivalent, \approx to
\approximate etc, etc? If we start diverging in that way, we loose all
ground. To me that sounds as a horror scenario.
