All of the abstract base classes should be collected in one place. I propose
that the modules be collected into a package so that we can write:
import abc.numbers
import abc.collections
. . .
Besides collecting all the relevant code in one place, it has a nice additional
benefit of clearly designating when you're working with one of the provided
abstract base classes. When I see "import numbers", I don't immediately
recognize this as being somehow different from "import math" or some other
concrete implementation.
IMO. the emerging practice of spreading modules these across the library isn't
serving us well.
