1. You assign to an array in a for loop. That usually is a sign for something inefficient.

It seemed more 'cool' to me than inefficient. I particularly liked the fact that I could get away with only one synthetic variable and that a loop counter (of sorts). Why is it inefficient?

2. Your use of $#i will put all data in one array, so you technically don't have an AoA, but just an array.

Errr ... but it *does* produce an AoA. 

print join( ', ' , @AoA ) , "\n";

Gives 
ARRAY(0x1b9528c), ARRAY(0x1b952a4), ARRAY(0x1b952d4)

3. You can loose the push/pop mechanism ...
