I don't think those discussion points will make Siyi happy ;) We are

like he wants.
I much much prefer being explicit with the dots, but like all syntax 
discussion it seems to get heated :)

This has been a point of (extremely) lengthy discussion. See the following
issues for recent improvements and plans, some of which will be in the next
release:

https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/15032
https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/16285
