For some reason I've been averse to them, perhaps for good reason other than 
their distinction from the racket libraries.   I began working with 
scheme/racket relatively recently, so I probably do not fully appreciate the 
historical rationale behind them.   (I do fully understand the need for 
backwards compatibility) 

I'm often left wondering, "If this is useful, why isn't it included in the 
common racket libraries?"

What is the official stance on using SRFI modules in new applications?
