A bit of both. There's nothing wrong with non-ASCII characters or  
mixfix operators in principle, but its very easy to get carried away.  
My goals are to find some set of modules that:

  - are very modest and don't slow down load times too much;
  - are reasonably uncontroversial;
  - are useful - both for research and teaching.

I find that using the standard libraries tends to be overkill for a  
lot of the small Agda developments I write. As other people might  
share my experience, I reckoned it might make sense to bundle up some  
mini-library that can spare us from having to define Nat and _+_ over  
and over.
