Constant-Time comparison [closed]

Question

A relatively simple question:

It appears that C# doesn't come with baked-in constant-time comparison methods or extensions, why not? Sure it's a simple algorithm, but it seems so basic it should be included.

It is typically not recommend to write any of your own crypto code, however it appears that there aren't any libraries for this kind of purpose, am I missing some?
