I agree with you here: the function name should reflect what it actually
does. (Note that the technical term is "probable prime", so it should be
is_probable_prime)
But I don't think that the Python stdlib should have a proven is_prime()
function because that would be complicated, slow and have very limited
benefit over is_probable_prime().
