I didn't realize (though I should have) that the comment could be taken that way.
I realize you were not writing anything about the Turing language, but the title of the essay triggered some memories for me of what my classmates and later my professional colleagues used to talk about. And for some reason this time the title made me laugh (I've read it before and did not have that reaction). I've been using Racket for all my hobbyist programming for a while so there's no possibility that it could not be taught on its own merits instead of through influence.
