@wycats No, see Luke Hoban's point. JS is statement-full. Adding block lambdas late makes wrong return bug habitat. @awbjs @littlecalculist
@BrendanEich @awbjs @littlecalculist the argument that people would be tempted by the sweet syntax as a "short function" and get confused
-

@wycats Same argument, w/ dual built in. The one where n00bs start sweet and err, the other refactors from function.@awbjs@littlecalculist -
@BrendanEich@awbjs@littlecalculist this argument is subtle. Perhaps shorter function (fn?) plus block-lambdas would have been fine. -
@wycats Search http://esdiscuss.org for 'fn', can't be reserved, so can't do funexprs. Arrows are a done deal now.@awbjs@littlecalculist -
@BrendanEich@awbjs@littlecalculist arrows as just shorter functions much simpler than partial TCP. More refactoring hazards with partial.
