I think this error--unintentional, I swear!--argues strongly that internal consistency within Perl 6 is more important than historical consistency with Perl 5's $1, $2, $3...
But that's only the opinion of one(@Larry), not of $Larry.
My opinion as none(@Larry), too. And correct me if I'm wrong, but Perl6 is a major version change, isn't it? OTOH I don't have any legacy code to support :) -- TSa (Thomas Sandlaß)
