Comment(by cotto):
I'd like to see this PMC go away too. It's a confusing leftover from when
Parrot thought it was Perl. Unfortunately it'll be tricky to remove
because a lot of code secretly depends on some of the multis it provides.
Removing it will mean removing its inheritance from Boolean, String,
Integer and Float, plus making sure all those multis go somewhere and
making sure that we don't break any HLLs in the process. I'm not sure if
it'll be worth the effort, but someone is welcome to take this on.
