I'd agree with the latter -- it's a face of Factor's own.

As a Forth user and fan, I'm glad Factor has gone beyond the
primitives Forth offers and has well proven. The return stack worked
well for Forth, but it isn't really simple; rather, it's primitive.
Factor has long since discovered more powerful, high-level, and
equally simple approaches to the same thing.

Obviously, we don't have the last word yet... But we're working on it.
