It's not about finding help information.
It's about finding a library - a file. Do you
also propose to move the find-file commands to
the `C-h' prefix, because the command name is
"find"? Moving `C-x 4 f' to `C-h <something>'?

It's not about the cursor being on the library
name. It's about getting the library file
wherever you are, in whatever buffer, directory,
etc.
What's the big deal? IIRC, in the last month
alone you've proposed (and grabbed) a _bunch_
of new default keys, no?
These find-library keys just make sense, IMO.
