Compared to your knowledge of APL, your estimate is certainly accurate
(a bit conservative maybe). This is a straw man though: You don't have
to know APL to recognise a lamp; just as you don't have to know Latin
to find NB. readable/understandable/mnemonic.

I enter {lamp} and get ⍝. Anyone who has problems with that can use
NB. instead.
All the best,
