[ruby-core:76941] [Ruby trunk Bug#12682][Rejected] Hash#flatten(level) does not recursively flatten inner hashes.

Issue #12682 has been updated by Marc-Andre Lafortune.

Status changed from Open to Rejected

The documentation of `Array#flatten` is pretty clear:

"...That is, for every element that is an **array**, extract its elements into the new array."

So it follows the documentation and would create massive incompatibilities to change!
