Comment on Why Arc is bad for exploratory programmingparent

Comments

There's still no answer to that question. If I needed speed, I could explain why. But there's no answer to the question of why you don't need speed.

I need a bottle opener to get the lid off a bottle. I need it because I need to bend the lid. I don't need a scarf to get the lid off a bottle. Why not? There's no reason you don't need a scarf to get the lid off a bottle; it's just not that useful.

Fair enough. I see your point and thank you for your patience.

If I may give this one last shot:

Why is slowness acceptable in a language tuned towards exploratory programming, and therefore an unimportant criteria when judging Arc?
