@jamie_allen why do you think more people will be familiar with addCurrenttToAccumulatedValues than reduce? We can't even spell it =D

@li_haoyi @jamie_allen I think the difficult thing is writing code that's accessible to programmers of a variety of different levels.

@li_haoyi @jamie_allen But I don't like the idea of reducing our code to an arbitrarily-chosen lowest common denominator featureset.

@li_haoyi @jamie_allen More advanced programmers have a responsibility to educate too, and they can do that by example.

@li_haoyi @jamie_allen If avoiding reduce((a, c) => a + c) isn't worth the syntactic burden, then reduce(_ + _) is worth learning/teaching.
