I think Prime might have had the same restriction. But it's because UV doesn't reference one I-descriptor from another, it expands it and all the @s end up pointing to the wrong place. Actually, so if your @ merely points at the previous expression, it should work. It's as soon as you use @1 @2 etc that it'll blow up.
