Yes I do. > Of course this should be brought up on a main scipy list, but I > thought I'd first ask people who actually use the code :) Each discussion on the scipy mailing about matrices versus arrays raises a thread expressing incomprehension across different groups of users that either think that matrix objects are dangerous and to be avoided, or fundamental to expressing linear algebra and teaching it. You can try raising a discussion, but because of this incomprehension it might not go there. Besides, I also think that is a fairly invasive change, and it would break many people's code, which explains legitimate reticence.
