Please tell Guido that he got it wrong!

He did, in fact, misspeak. functools is part of the standard library, and was part of the standard library in 3.0, and contained reduce: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/3.0/Lib/functools.py#...

What he meant to say is that it's removed from the list of builtins.
