It's not that it's obscure or difficult, it's that since I've already
loaded Path::Class and most likely have the file object representing
the path already, calling ->slurp on it is the natural way forward for
me.
I'm not saying you're wrong using File::Slurp, I'm just saying that I
don't have it at the top of my module list any more.
