Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:
This is too specialized function to be included in the stdlib ar added as a
method to base class.
There are simpler and faster implementations of this function:
def simplify(s):
return ' '.join(s.strip().split())
or
def simplify(s):
return re.sub(r'\s+', ' ', s.strip())
Due to they simplicity there is no need to add them in Python.
