Is this worth for this change? We don't like it, but the alternative is that you have partially broken signatures. If we demand that signatures stay where they are, we are demanding they stay broken when it comes to cooperating with other, stable syntax - namely, subroutine attributes. This is literally broken by design, in that sense. Honestly, I feel this is getting ridiculous. We cannot even change experimental features that were *always* experimental because people already started using it?Thread Previous | Thread Next
