You are, of course, free to continue whining that it should be changed in
the core, by the official developers. Lots of luck with that.
I don't know where you've got that from. - I was merely suggesting
an IMO sensible and compatible change of a function in a way other
functions (standard and non-standard) have already been extended.
I think it belongs in the core and I was suggesting and discussing

If the relevant official developers don't think so then it is as it
