While you're at it why don't you fix: (needle, haystack), (haystack, needle)? :P

With array functions, the needle is first. With string functions, the haystack is first.

Are you sure it's that consistent? I just feel like there's some function hiding somewhere that breaks this rule.

This still doesn't convince me it was ever a beneficial design.

I didn't claim it was beneficial, just consistent.

Or even use a proper IDE to code other than gedit/notepad !!
