gollark: No, that would conflict with core Macron features like the convenient bracketless UFCS.
gollark: osmarkspythonbuildsystem™:- is maximally generic via Turing-completeness- is very parallel- has variables with no quoting hassle
gollark: Threads share memory. You would need a new process.
gollark: What if it leaks more things, but the things contain antimemes?
gollark: What if you produced some sort of thing to automatically track when things were still in use and free them when they weren't?
