I think the choice of using functions instead of classes + methods doesn't really fit well into Python. Either you need to do a huge amount of imports or use the awful `from siuba import *`. This feels like shoehorning the dplyr syntax into Python when method chaining would be more natural and would still retain the idea.
Also, having (already a while ago) looked at the implementation of the magic `_` object, it seemed like an awful hack that will serve only a part of use cases. Maybe someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I get the impression you can do e.g. `summarize(x=_.x.mean())` but not `summarize(x=median(_.x))`. I'm guessing you don't get autocompletion in your editor or useful error messages and it can then get painful using this kind of a magic.
