> I suggest "next_after" instead of "nextafter".

"nextafter" gives us consistency with C, with NumPy and with other compound names in the math module ("isnan", "isclose", "copysign"). My own brain doesn't perceive either of "nextafter" or "next_after" as more readable than the other.

What's the argument for "next_after"?
