That is true. However; as I see things, the only real advantages
calculator.el has over calc are:
Whether it has real advantages is one issue--but there's another
issue: incompatibility. Current users of the Simple Calculator will
be unhappy to switch to Calc since that means incompatible changes.
That is enough reason to retain the Simple Calculator, or else add an
emulation mode whereby Calc imitates the Simple Calculator.
