The new map / filter / reduce / ! seem nice but is it not the idea of sugar to use the same names as in R, i.e. Map / Filter / Reduce / Negate, to avoid having to remember a new set of names.

Ah. you’re right. As I don’t really use them often in R, I did not mind and was just following Kevin’s original issue. I guess we can still change them as this has not been released yet.
