which means you won't have much use of nested loops with map

Could you explain what you mean there? map localizes $_, so nested maps are not a problem. Code like the following (admittedly contrived) snippet works as expected ($_ is not clobbered by the inner map):

my @list = ( ["Barney", "Rubble"], ["Fred", "Flintstone"], ["Betty", "Rubble"], ["Wilma", "Flintstone"] ); map { say "Outer map before: @$_"; map { 1 } @$_; say "Outer map after : @$_"; } @list;

But perhaps there's other pitfalls, so I'd be grateful for any enlightenment.
