Just saying that makes my point.
^0 and $0
^1 and $1
The ordinal concept onto the arguments matches much better. There
is already a break between
@foo = /(..) (..) ... /
and $foo[0] and $1, ..., $foo[n] and $n
I and several other folks made our point. We see this more akin
in nomenclature and appearance to the regexp matches, then to
a invisible offset into an array.
All I ask is the Damian add our comments to the RFC.
