I well remember that TEXTJOIN and CONCAT originally were dedicated to
compatibility with Excel, and that there were a few months of discussions about
the doubtable implementations owed to that fact.
The idea of sticking to the original implementation in case it was proven to
behave as the functions did in Exel looked absurd to me then, because what was
claimed to be returned by Excel under array-evaluation was so absurd.
Now the issue is clearly less serious. Nonetheless the question if "compatible"
should be preferred over "good and consistent" deserves thorough consideration
in every case.
