It's a fact of life that leverage implies rigidity. A rubber crowbar is
flexible, but useless.
Our challenge is, as I see it, to determine the minimum we need to keep
rigid in order to get maximum leverage for doing the rest.

Note that, that statement, is not exactly true.
The more users it gets, the more social pressure the community will
put on it.
That happens.
But...
Flexibility is function of design and not coupled with community size.
And it is a good problem to solve: We need to change the language to
make it easier evolvable.
A very nice research topic.
(which in a second step then can be feed back into the system, making
future evolution easier)
