When it comes to backwards-compatibility with obsolete APIs, consistency often just means bloat. (I've used querySelector exclusively for quite some time, and I find arguments that querySelector isn't readable or "the wrong tool" to simply not hold up. I find it more readable, actually, since I don't have to change interfaces depending on whether I'm searching for an ID or a class.) -- Glenn Maynard
