The article mentions that they handwaved all the typing stuff (when you do that, effect handlers are more like delimited continuations). But the types are important. If a function doesn't tell you it's effects, how do you know you have to handle them? You'd have to read the whole call graph. That's why exceptions suck.
I don't worry too much about HTML output still being WIP. Even if TeX had a massive head start, Typst has a good development speed, and a little bit of slope makes up for a lot of y-intercept.
The article is reading way too much into it, and it forgets a very important piece of information: The origin of usted is "vuestra merced". Spanish had T-V distinction, like most romance languages, but usted superceded vos as the formal 2nd person pronoun.
sumercé is a word that had the same process, just starting from "su merced" instead, since in Colombia —like in all other latin american countries— vosotros is not used.
That's it.
x + 1
is different from Expr(:call, :+, :x, 1)
