I've read about Kernel before, but this time I wondered if $vau is in any way related to 0 from Jot (the turing tarpit best apparently best used as a Goedel numbering).
there are certain similarities to other very-low-operator-count languages - the big difference is that with Kernel's fexprs, you can go from this handful of operators to a fully-featured language more expressive than Scheme, and do so with style. See the R-1RK - it builds up the whole language, sequentially, from the built-ins:

Maybe I should just write jshutt...
