This approach to Jenks is simpler and faster than our existing approach. I'm planning on a clean-room implementation of the stated algorithm as a full replacement for v1.0.0.

Since you are doing a clean room implementation, it might be worth considering using numpy.

This is a JavaScript library, and numpy is in Python.

Doh, sorry for the noise - have been looking at python libraries for the last few years :)

In JavaScript-land, a fast implementation might use ndarray, but the intent of simple-statistics is to be understandable first, so this implementation will start with normal ol' arrays.
