The major achievement of (the new) Data.Set and Data.Map are canonical
names that should be used in conjunction with qualified imports:
import qualified Data.Set as Set
import qualified Data.Map as Map
import Data.List as List

There is no difference in efficiency, Data.Map is not slower than the
old FiniteMap.
