Hi Brad, Sorry, I missed that Hash inherits from Enumerable (and I've filed a doc bug on it[1] and will fix it -- the doc page for Hash doesn't mention Enumerable).
So I think that's your answer: Hash#filter is an alias for Enumerable#findAll[2], which is documented as returning an array, not a Hash, and so having it return a Hash would be breaking the contract.
