Why do you call failures in understanding things like this better, Stef?
Whoever writes such statements, has no idea about an object's value versus
a block's value and especially no idea about when and why execution of a
block of code can and should be delayed (not to speak about performance
impact).
I would like to see caseOf:...removed from the system
And replace it by what? Why would you limit the expressive power of the
software developer, Stef?
