I don't think I think that they'd be too rare. (I think) But I do
think that we're overinflating their importance. Changing the way
people think about programming is all well and good, and I can honestly
see the advantages behind
if ($a == 1|2|3) {
but I think the problem is that it's going too far out in a familiar context.
Unfamiliar things should be so marked.

Um. There is no David conspiracy. Definitely not. No Kate conspiracy either.
No. No, there is definitely not any sort of David conspiracy, and we are
definitely *not* in league with the Kate conspiracy. Who doesn't exist. And
nor does the David conspiracy. No. No conspiracies here. - Thorfinn, ASR
