Indeed, and of course for __array_ufunc__ we moved there a bit already,
with `NDArrayOperatorsMixin` [1].
One could certainly similarly have NDShapingMixin that, e.g., relied on
`shape`, `reshape`, and `transpose` to implement `ravel`, `swapaxes`, etc.
And indeed use those mixins in `ndarray` itself.

For this also having a summary of base functions/methods would be very
helpful.
