I like that name too, though it’s probably my Ruby experience showing. I like the clarity of “compact” for nils, “filter” for booleans. I like how fluently “compactMap” reads.
If the core team does accept this proposal, I’d trust them to take a minute to make a considered, opinionated choice about the name.
