Hi Richard,
Don't think it's a problem of religion :-)
Or you want to maintain an "every day" language or you want to allow
specialists languages come in.
As for me I don't mind : I use both.
But I think that all guys who invented Xtalks principles would not
agree.
In fact, if some distorsions could win over the purists of minimalist
programming, I should not be worried ;-)
But I am a writer too: So I love words... and hate when they are
replaced with simple maths operations.
Some civilization question ?
Best Regards from Paris,
Eric Chatonet.

Hello Richard,
Since it would be optional as it is in other xTalks, nothing
would be lost.
Except the spirit :-)
Grasp all, lose all...
With the current flexibility of xTalk, we can choose to write:
put 1 + tMyVar into tMyVar
..or we can write:
add 1 to tMyVar
Does it necessarily diminish the language to have these options?
I save my religion for Sundays....
