>>>I can't think of any other language that comes with such functionality
built-in.  It's something you put in an add-on module, like Perl's
Time::ParseDate or Python's dateutil or Ruby's optional Date class (as opposed
to the core Time class).

AppleScript is not like any other programming language.  It's at a higher
level than most (I'd say Automator is higher still).  It's logical that a
higher level language would have more capabilities built in than lower level
languages.

I see this change as a backward step.
