Perhaps the collections doc should mention that there are other specializes container types available on PyPI and either list some or point to a wiki page listing some. There must be at least 10 that could be included in such a list.

There is a relatively high threshold of importing C extensions from an external source. If I build an application making use of them and advise coworkers to use it, they would likely balk at having to compile them. Not all machines have a development toolkit.

Furthermore:

which pip

/usr/bin/which: no pip in (/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:
/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin)

yum install pip

No package pip available.
