> The function `lsh` works almost like `ash` but is much slower, cannot be 
> constant-folded by the compiler, and above all has confusing semantics for 
> historical reasons. Using `lsh` instead of `ash` is always a mistake.
>
> For these reasons we should deprecate `lsh`. It is not important to remove it 
> as soon as possible, but to dissuade people from accidentally using it in their 
> code.
