"For comprehensions" are (more less) just ways of doing lazy sequence
comprehensions in Scala, Clojure, etc. I think I prefer comprehensions in
the Miranda, Haskell, Python, etc. style: generator expression are handled
with constructs that do not resemble explicit iteration for loops. Less to
create confusion.
