The very first example I found of zip() in my own code does a sort() on the
result, in a Schwarzian-transform-like sort method. It's pretty useful that way,
so I doubt my own code is unique with this usage.

I totally agree that zip() should have been an iterator, the same could be said
of range()... It's simply too late.
