All of them can go, in my opinion. By the way, I love this mindset.
Perhaps we should get rid of sin/cos/tan and friends too then?
Special functions will always be used sparingly in any code, yet they
are very non-trivial to implement. So you need to load a C lib. Why not
the standard Lua math lib? It is a *math* lib.
