Or derivatives?? Generalizing from GNU APL to APL as a whole is a stretch in my opinion, but telling people not to use K on the basis of your APL experiences is something else entirely. They are very different languages. For example K uses only ASCII and has never supported dynamic scoping, only (somewhat restricted) lexical scoping.
