[dullbananas]

Basics module contains many functions and constants such as pi snd cos which should go in a separate Math module

Hi.

You don't actually present any argument in favor of such a change.
"should" is not an argument.

• A lot of the math stuff in Basics aren't common enough to need to automatically get imported with (..) compared to stuff like identity and I think it is very bad that the core module that has the most stuff is also the one that always gets automatically imported with (..).

• Seeing Math.toPolar when reading code is way less confusing than toPolar since that function is not common or well known compared to other things in the core library.

This can also help make Elm more familiar to users of JavaScript, where many math functions are static methods of the Math object
