I came to this by googling "NIM criticism", which I guess I did because my impressions of the language (only reading about it so far) were so positive that I thought I might be missing something.
I wonder if @drslump ended up following @dom96's suggestion to "...please report these things". I think drslump's point about the visibility of the macros feature (which apparently is _not_ the fault of the core NIM developers, but that doesn't imply there is nothing to be done) over features that are more limited but arguably better for longevity, was somewhat misunderstood.
