It manages to describe the distinction between `union`/`unionInPlace` and `sort`/`sortInPlace` in the name itself. To me, the `ed`/`ing` difference is much more subtle and favors people who are familiar with English grammar. One can argue that `sort` is both imperative and functional, and that because of [either side] the default should be [mutable/immutable]. Both arguments are valid. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">- David</div><br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On 15 Apr 2016, at 18:31, Erica Sadun via swift-evolution <<a href="mailto:swift-evolution@swift.org" class="">swift-evolution@swift.org</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;" class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class=""><br class="Apple-interchange-newline">On Apr 15, 2016, at 10:17 AM, Антон Жилин via swift-evolution <<a href="mailto:swift-evolution@swift.org" class="">swift-evolution@swift.org</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><div dir="ltr" class="">I've already expressed these concerns, but nobody noticed, apparently.
