What you say is the truth, but it's not the whole truth. Rakudo isn't
the customer either. *Rakudo's customers* are the customer, and those
are the real world users of the language. Which, BTW, Rakudo doesn't
have any of yet, though the best candidates are current Perl 5 users.
It's Rakudo that needs to get down to business and start addressing the
needs of the customer. But Parrot can help by being very practical and
results-driven.
