The way people code with Python is by using its large ecosystem, few people only use the standart library. No one knows all the API, the more discoverability there is, the better.
I use stdlib whenever possible specifically because it’s huge, well-tested, and eliminates dependencies.
I don’t know all of its API, but I do read the docs periodically (not all of them, but I try to re-read modules I use a lot, and at least one that I don’t).
