Oh you mean actually *move* the files there?  That seems like a bad
idea since some of these are in their own collection because of other
reasons.  For example, there's dependencies on pprint and on unstable.

This is a very minor kind of encouragement -- it applies only to
people who edit core code.  For most people, the encouragement is
already there since from their POV contracts can be added into any
code they write.
