I would say it's not good enough. The whole approach of designing the

I understand how frustrating this is. In fact even the way you consider
"good" is not nearly good enough. What we need is really more
formalization of the language design, something that we're sorely
missing. I am sometimes frustrated out of my mind at the lack of rigor
and discipline in the process. On the other hand, we march with the
troops we have.
