Actually the phrasing in the readme is not correct - I will change it later, but now I want to say that the objective is not deleting "much" of it, but rather cleaning up old and deprecated modules, or providing alternative solutions (for things like os/json that historically were a point of friction).

Yikes. I've found that languages with a small standard library have deep dependency trees for imported packages. I hope this is a stepping stone to a different standard library, rather than an end goal in-and-of itself.
