Comment (by mhansen):

 I would say that none of the is_Something functions should be imported at
 the top level.  One reason why they're there is to make things easy to
 refactor / change over time.  If they aren't doing that, then they should
 probably be removed all together.

 I consider both of those situations better than not being able to predict
 what an is_Something method does.

 Additionally, almost every other mathematical property is queried by an
 .is_* method on the object itself.
