Is that a negative point? BTW, the compiler doesn't necessarily
need to use the same API for the AST internally as exposed
externally.
Yes, considering current official stance on breaking changes that
is huge negative point. We are rather far from being able to tell
what good stable AST format could be be in the long run.
Maintaining two different formats is a way to address that but I
feel that effort required goes beyond the realm of realistic at
that point.
