There’s moreutils for an older rethink of the same set of utilities. I don’t see why an evenmoreutils wouldn’t eventually become popular enough to take hold? Probably not as quickly as you’d like in today’s world of instant gratification, but we’ll get there, eventually.

moreutils is still nowhere near as ubiquitous as coreutils. For me it's not about gratification. It would be more satisfying to make use of the most modern tools available. It's about making sure stuff works and I find sticking to coreutils is the easiest way to do that most of the time.
