FWIW, internally when we were discussing this we called it "strictish". It's kind of a ridiculous name, but at least it wouldn't suffer from the confusion here. /me ducks In all seriousness, the version of this that doesn't include size is the one I expect to be the 90% use case for contains, so that's the one that should sound most natural in an ideal world.
