Comment(by whiteknight):
This really raises a sort of philosophical question about what Parrot is
and what we should try to provide. Do we try to provide a huge built-in
library, even if our implementations of many types are suboptimal? Do we
provide things that maybe people don't need, but we want to keep a bunch
of things around anyway, just in case?
I agree with plobsing, It's better to do fewer things well than to do many
things poorly. We can move Complex into it's own project where it can get
better, more specialized attention and we can redo the interface so it
becomes a better tool for people to use, when they need it.
