Would C# be a better language if WinForms were not in the standard library? Would Rust be a better language if GTK+ were in the standard library? If the answers to these questions are different, why?

swift is completely analagous to c# in this regard if you want to do a fair comparison (swift has a core/foundation split for libs to not be strictly apple-only, but a lot of basic functionality is in foundation...) for rust you want java AWT or something

Yeah, WinForms is an interesting example because it was designed as Win32-only but it accidentally admitted fairly portable implementations in Mono, allowing apps written to it to be portable. I guess that’s a consequence of being minimal and reasonably well-designed?
