Yes... not quite so well with the “by” variants. What would we say?
then group initsBy by x
This problem occurs independent of group, does it not? then sortBy by x The solution is to rename sort --> sortByDefault sortBy --> sort but that's hardly appealing. Might be better to live with the problem. Any ideas?
I don’t think we can steal “group” as a keyword -- it’s a function exported by Data.List, and I don’t think the benefit justifies the cost.
So you are saying you prefer "then group" to "group"?
