Comment:

 This has been around forever, and I don't feel any impetus to change it...
 in particular, in-place alteration functions now exist, and detoasting a
 copy is minimally more efficient than detoasting a non-copy and then
 cloning it. I'm not sure there's enough guards around to avoid people
 building on top of other memory and then mucking with it, so it would be
 sanity theatre rather than effective.
