What's the problem with utility functions? You would prefer it if 
any time something annoys someone, we add an entire new language 
feature for it? Surely you can understand why that approach to 
language development is not sustainable.

If your objection is "I shouldn't have to write this myself; it 
should be available out of the box," then I encourage you to make 
a PR submitting it to the standard library. If it's useful to 
you, there's a good chance it will be useful to others too.
