I assumed you meant that the extra arguments should be slices
on the string being searched, i.e.
specimen.startswith(text, start, end)
is equivalent to
specimen[start:end].startswith(text)
without the overhead of slicing the specimen? Or did i understand
you correctly?

Yes, i have to agree that this (especially once you name the
separator string) is a pretty nice way to present the "join"
functionality.

"Is it so small a thing,
To have enjoyed the sun,
To have lived light in the Spring,
To have loved, to have thought, to have done;
To have advanced true friends, and beat down baffling foes--
That we must feign bliss
Of a doubtful future date,
And while we dream on this,
Lose all our present state,
And relegate to worlds... yet distant our repose?"
