I second this. If the current definition of "lexical" remains unchanged
(which I strongly suspect it will), I think Perl should remain loosely
typed by default. Make people add

   use strict;
   use warnings;

If they want clean code. It makes it more obvious what's going on, too.
Otherwise, "quick-and-dirty" 5-liners become 6-liners with

   no strict;

chewing up an extra line.
