Should some Labs Tools transition faster to Houdini?

Seems like I'm always using the Labs Attribute Normalize node in my HDAs, but I'm not really fond of the idea of releasing them with a dependency on an external package, like the Labs Toolset in this case.

Does anyone else run into this?
Also, I'm curious which Labs Tools you guys think should make it into the main app?

Labs Axis Align.

It's just very convenient.

this one is one of the few that actually transitioned, as Match Size SOP
nowadays even Labs Axis Align TAB entry will place Match Size SOP instead

some of these are useful, however a lot of LABs tools are not designed in a best way including Attribute Normalize so transitioning to default nodes would require a redesign

however I agree that there is a need for more factory nodes for common usecases that everyone ends up building from scratch all the time, and statistics of lab tools usage may help identify those
