There are facts. Fact is, several persons reported that actual,
real life newcomer are confused by tuple. As the experiment is
repeatable we are not dealing with in the anecdotal anymore.
The fact the the poll show this result as a first one tells us
that a good chunk of voters are either unaware of the evidence
(there is nothing wrong with being ignorant, but don't try to
influence results when you are or you'll be received as it
should, with ridicule) or willfully choose to ignore ignore
them which is worse. This CANNOT be taken seriously.
All the poll shows is what people like(or hate the least), Walter
and Andrei can interpret that how ever they wish. I am not
arguing for or against any of the names(they all suck).
We get it, you think tuple is a bad name, you keep coming back
and repeating the same arguments. Everyone gets it. But if people
don't share in your opinion or don't think it is as bad as you
make it out to be then they have that right, that does not make
them ignorant or an idiot. Your ad hominem attacks are really not
needed.
Personally I don't like tuple that much either, I would prefer
AliasList, but I like it better than AliasSeq and far better than
Aliases.
