Thank you for the reply! I understand the value of not breaking away from the numpy tradition. Coming up with alternative interfaces which eliminate the need for an axis argument in the first place (when possible) seems like a good way to improve ergonomics while being reasonably conservative about this.
The different semantics of axis in pandas.drop vs. e.g. .sum is my go-to example of this inconsistency, so I did notice when playing around with static-frame that its version of .drop elegantly avoids axis altogether :) Well done!
