It's amazing how there can be huge bursts of discussion on which keyword to use (e.g. manifest constants), but then complete silence about major design decisions like thread safety that defines new transitive states and a bunch of new keywords. The description even made parallels to the (previously?) unpopular const architecture.

I top-posted because what I had to say had very little to do with the message I replied to. Many of my posts lately have aimed at trying to encourage collaboration.
