hmmmmm... Why reinvent the wheel?

Also

If we're just going to import it and stick it in the library, it begs the question: Why doesn't the dev just import both and use both separately?

At that point it would just be an advertisement / endorsement of an external dependency.

We would need to do something useful in the context of cryptocurrency in order to merit including it in our library......

Just my two cents.

ie. we COULD include bip39 in bitcoinjs-lib but it is an external repository because bitcoinjs-lib should avoid bloat.
