I actually took the time to bring anyone listening in up to speed, and
to clarify so I could better understand your use case. Don't feel bad,
things in the thread are moving fast and I just wanted to clear it up.

Ideally, we all want to improve the language, and the interpreter.
However trying to push it towards a particular use case is dangerous
given the idea of "general use".
