I don't think it's such a great idea. These are bread and butter functions
and adding a namespace in front of abs, pow, map to these convenience
functions do not make the language clearer or disambiguate the functions.
We'd all end up with a verbose language just for the sake of classifying
functions by a taxonomy.
