Exactly so. I would not normally guess that the builtins belong to the core language - they belong to the stdlib, IMO. "core language" is just syntax to me, perhaps plus the data types that have literals or displays, and perhaps plus a few selected exceptions. (just to test your own intuition: when reversed() got added, was that more of a language change than when sys.meta_path got added?)
