You know I love criticizing Perl, its part of my mentality to openly discuss room for improvements. Call me an anti fan boy.
But whenever I try to get used to supposedly better designed languages (JS, Python, Ruby, ...) I'm instantly stumbling over something weird.
And the answer I normally get after asking "why" is "yeah for historical reasons we had to do it like this and can't change it now"
Misc is a good point, please send a feature request via Perlbug
