gollark: There's a collection of quotes like that in autohydraz!
gollark: Not for to forall or whatever, since they're totally different.
gollark: Oh, I'm just comparing `for` for all loops versus actually using separate keywords for semantically different things.
gollark: What's easier to read?
gollark: Go making all loops `for` (WHY DOES IT DO THAT) doesn't make it much simpler, since you still have to *know* all the weird ways to use it and so does the compiler.
