... I would hope that this is not an honest assessment of my intent. It certainly was not to have a flamewar; I'm sorry if I provoked one, or provoked anyone to leave. I was actually hoping to get a discussion on a) whether full languages *can be* superior to each other, and as a followup, b) how. The latter would probably yield a featural description, in my guess, and I think that having something of the sort would be a useful tool. Other than the HTML, another mistake I made was not prefacing the post with [THEORY]; my apologies. No harm meant, just overlooked. - Sai
