Summarizing my opposition to a new set method:
1) there already are at least two succinct ways to get the same effect
2) those ways work with any container, not just sets
3) set implementations in other languages show that this isn't needed.
4) there is value to keeping the API compact
5) isn't needed for optimization (selecting the same value in a loop
makes no sense)
6) absence of real-world code examples that would be meaningfully
improved
Agreed
I would be happy to add an example to the docs so that this thread
can finally end.
Please do!
Yes!
