Yes indeed. When I first saw that I fell off my chair laughing.
When I was finally able to pick myself up off the floor,
I stared at the error message it produced for a while, then
realised I had no idea what it did, how it worked, or even
if it was valid Perl or Swahili or whatever, so I was hardly
in a position to disqualify or allow it.
