i think, that the question, why a new object [pack] is named pack is not rhetoric at all and isn't answered yet. so lets go again: why is [pack] from zexy called [pack]?
apart from the specifics of [pack]:if a language allows the overriding of built-in methods, then i do not see why a social codex (which is what you are asking for, right?) should forbid it. especially, if a language introduces ways to override built-in methods after years of existance, it actually encourages the overriding of built-in methods.
