 If `is_front_page()` returned false on `/page/2/`, that would make it
 harder to do stuff (like display a message or whatever) on those pages
 while avoiding doing it on like page 2 of the latest posts (you could do
 hackery to display like only a certain category on your homepage for
 example).

 However, if it continues to return true, it's easy to exclude paged
 results via `!is_paged()`.

 Basically, it's a lot more flexible how it is now. It's easier to exclude
 pages (now) than it is is determine if it's the front of the site, but
 paged (proposed).

 Get it? Sorry, it's hard to explain, heh.
