Right. We don't have a full production 3.0 release yet, so I tend to think of "Scala" as Scala 2 unless it's specifically qualified as Scala 3.
Scala 3 seems to be a really good step in the right direction for me. There's a clear desire for many of the features that are currently achieved through burdensome hacks on top of implicits, and actually reifying several of them into core language features is a counterintuitive way to make things simpler rather than more complicated.
