Emanuel Barry, that is both untrue and irrelevant (sorry to be blunt, but that's a total straw man on my and I believe other's argument). The fact that the only mathematical constants in math are pi and e (nan and inf aren't really "mathematical" constants) *does* indicate to me that only the really important ones are included. 

GvR, are you also in favor of adding more math constants/functions to the math module? I do see the value of Easter eggs in the language, but two real constants and one Easter egg constant seems weirder than ten real constants and one Easter egg constant. I'm +1/(2*pi) (because I still think tau in general is stupid) to add it if it also means the math module can be expanded. And before you ask, yes, I'll be happy to contribute once things move to GitHub.
