I always thought f. was a good idea because a tacit definition with user names in an implied loop can run noticeably slower than its f. version. In the non-f. version, user names must be looked up again in every pass through the implied loop. I have long thought efforts to speed name look-ups would be a good investment to improve J's performance.
