I don’t think you’re wrong in your assessment. But just for fun I will point out that I probably assumed a bit to far when I stated no dictionary, there is a name binding mechanisms for ‘words’, but I have a quote form as well. Also, while I would say the language is functional, it is also intended to be low level, ideally, the base of the language is a dependently typed pseudo-assembly language, but the modal type system and homoiconic syntax enable building words that are semi-macros. It is, at this point, basically my attempt to blend Forth’s philosophical leanings with category/type theory. But thanks for the reply, outside perspectives are always great for me to hear.
