Being only five hundred lines doesn't disqualify it from being a library.

But being impossible to safely integrate into other projects because of illegal names and polluting the global namespace does.

This is at best a rough proof of concept which could at some point be turned into a library.

Such a clever swipe!

Don't know where you are sourcing your definitions from, but, conventionally, being a library merely means that it's a reusable piece of code that does something well-defined.

It's not reusable. Ergo not a library.
