If this feedback was given during the "heat of the discussion", maybe it could lead the discussion to a place where less variants would be introduced on this first implementation and a shorter syntax could be introduced later on, like the arrow functions were introduced after anonymous functions. Maybe if such a feedback was given before and it was decided to go for a trimmed version of the feature, maybe Ilija/Larry could have had less work to implement and test all the variantes they've done. I think if a person has such numerous concerns, it should be exposed ASAP even if your thoughts are not totally clear. If you had a chat directly with Ilija/Larry, they would be aware of such concerns and would expend efforts to address these concerns. Regards, Erick
