I keep help wonder: other than a 5 chars, what is it we have gained?
Certainly in such a simple case, there's no benefit. In more complex
cases, especially where we're focused on just writing the combinator
itself (i.e., in cases where we won't use ($.)), I think it might make
sense (there is an example in the comments of Conal's recent post at
[1]).
But anyway I do mean might... I happily admit the possibility that
this may be nothing more than a curiosity. I'm happy to have found a
solution to my little puzzle, but I'm not sure how often I'll actually
use it. Time will tell, I suppose.
