gollark: Add and subtract are some kind of compose, I forgot which way round, and concat is... some kind of arrowy operator? It returns a new function which runs two functions on the same input and returns two outputs.
gollark: In potatOS you can add, subtract, and concatenate functions.
gollark: You could do CC's current "5.1ish", and a "5.4" option, and... rewrite all the BIOS/CraftOS code to work in both, I guess? I don't know how practical that is.
gollark: It'd literally just be `debug.setfenv`, I think.
gollark: Would it be possible to do something like what OC does? Per-computer settable architectures. Apart from the maintenence headache I guess.
