This library did not born because of fun, but because of solving a (non-existing) problem from frustration. I would have not said one word if he was doing this for fun or just learning or something like that.

What defines a problem as non-existing/existing? It's very subjective. While it may not be for you, the author definitely saw an issue that needed to be fixed.

Again, I'm using the example of requests: was Kennethwrong to implement something new when there was already a standard lib?
