Does the bias matter at all if Eq means equality?
It should be documented, so "advanced users" can rely on the behaviour.
In my opinion, even "advanced users" should adhere to The Haskell Report which says that (==) means equality.
A specified bias is very important for reasoning about time/space efficiency. I think it is quite important. plus, even though (==) means equality, every now and again it comes in handy to cheat a little :) -- John Meacham - ⑆repetae.net⑆john⑈
