I most wholeheartedly agree with the 6., but do not see any need for the 7. The sigils we have are great, the system works and makes sense (and the change in the system of sigils is gonna cause a heluva lot of wasted time while seasoned Perl5 developers struggle to relearn sigils working the Perl6 way), but there is no need to complicate it any more. BTW, IMnsHO the changes to sigils and the concatenation and method call operators were both bad ideas.

Besides, after a lot of thinking, I (hopefully correctly) inferred the intended meaning of the array examples, but still have no idea whatsoever what did you mean by the first line.
