It could have been defined that way. I would have voted for adverb; it
would certainly make the implementation easier. But it wasn't. You can
write (1 2 o. y) to get sin & cos.
(;.3) is, in fact, an adverb, because ;. is a conjunction.

Hey,
Should the circle function o. not be internally defined as an adverb similarly
to b.? Both do use their left argument only to define the action of the verb.
Should a similar argument be made about the conjuction cut ;. and its n, which
has only 8 possible values? What are the good reasons behind these decisions?
