Hi all, I would like to add that I don't believe that discoverability is always better in the `builtins' module.
I personally had the experience of going over itertools, where I found 'zip_longest', but I couldn't find a 'zip_shortest'. Only after some googling I found out it was called `zip' and it lived in `builtins'.
