Can we have a `fun Any?.println() = println(this)` function? I know there is already a `.sout` thing...

Can we have a fun Any?.println() = println(this) function? I know there is already a .sout thing, but why would one use it if there will be println extension

I think this is too niche a use case to pollute everything with another extension function.

I think the problem is, it would make it difficult to print a blank line.

Yea, correct. Using it with normal println inside classes will become really awkward...
