gollark: Overloading things when they work quite differently doesn't actually make stuff *simpler*.
gollark: I don't think it ends up "simpler" as much as "about the same".
gollark: I suppose you can put in the documentation "write(thing, what) - look, you just write everything this way" but people have to know about its behavior with different `thing`s anyway.
gollark: So it doesn't end up simpler.
gollark: Well, yes, but the kernel has to do branching based on the file descriptor type anyway.
