Sorry, didn't mean to sound rude at all. I guess I was a bit on the defensive given all the pushback I was getting elsethread

It's hard to really pin it down to a couple of things, but after spending some time in it, you quickly feel the ergonomics aren't really great. It's just a lot of typing to get basic things done like inserting an element into a 1-d array.

For such a high-level language and one directed at non-programmers as you mentioned, you'd think that sort of tooling would be available natively
