This is a hard one. Having all the tools in the standard library is nice because you have it when you have the language. But building out such a library is hard and generally there is many approaches that might be desired. Not to mention the ever growing new thing that should get added.

This leads me to the idea the standard libraries should allow for better standards across 3rd party libraries.

Standard set of Exception types. Standard containers. Standard attributes.
