It isn't slower as far as the implementation is concerned.  And parsing
slowdowns do not really matter for functions.inc in a non-trivial scene.  It
does keep out a hundred or so keywords however, which is a great benefit for
everybody who does not happen to be using one of those functions in a
particular scene.
