FWIW, here is a list of base* functions masked** by CRAN packages:
https://github.com/gaborcsardi/rfunctions/blob/master/rfunctions.md
Look at the long table in the end. simulate indeed comes up 16 times. (But
read ** below.)

* This only includes functions in base packages that are attached by
default.
** The CRAN function names were taken from the manual page aliases, so a
couple of them are not really function names, and some of them are probably
not masking anything, but defining an S3 generic. This was a lot simpler
than going over the namespaces of all CRAN packages.

It seems that several base functions are masked, by several packages. I
would need to get a better CRAN function list, though.
