Yes I was also thinking about if evaluating all other arguments is a good
idea. My first thought was about performance and the conclusion was that
when one does work interactively on the REPL, one wants to do this
evaluation anyway. There are, of course issues with mutating functions like
when typing this:
using NetCDF
ncwrite(scale!(x,2),"myfile.nc","
and when you tab-complete now, your have already applied the scale!
function to the first argument. Maybe I should add some big warnings in the
package text.
