You know, I already resent having to use STDERR instead of stderr.
Adding five noisy characters, or seven, is way, way over the top.

As for system globals, when one suggested to Larry that these be
something on the order of SYS::ARGV or $SYS::ERRNO, he sputtered
vetoistically about how unpleasantly tedious such an irritably
length name would thus be, and required a terser solution.

    (Er, well, actually, I generally *can* use stderr, at least in
    main, but you didn't hear me tell that.)
