The first thing he did
was to build himself a library of APL-like functions and
operators... Then he wrote the add-in into this hybrid
language.

When I see something like this, I recall a story about the casting of "Aunty Entity" for the "Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome" movie. They kept telling the hopefuls that they wanted someone "more like Tina Turner." Eventually, someone said "Why don't we _get_ Tina Turner."

If you want to use something like APL, why not APL?
