I don't understand that: isn't the point of namespaces to avoid those
naming conflicts. To me that's just like saying that numpy.sum shouldn't
be named sum because it would conflict with the sum builtin.


It's just asking for import problems and general confusion to shadow a Python module, that's why we renamed io to npyio.

I'm curious as to what would be in the module.
