But it only uses *one* syntax and core set of concepts to
cover all of those. Unlike, apparently, Falcon... take a
look at this page concerning how Falcon approaches functional
programming (but don't look for too long or your eyes may
begin to bleed...)

Falcon seems to collect programming paradigms the way Perl
collects language features, i.e. by just munging them all
together and bending parts until they fit.
