It's bare, and it's a word.

I presume you're also happy with these ambiguities:
    $foo{shift} vs. $foo{"shift"}

    $foo{bar} vs. sub bar() { ... } $foo{bar} 
              vs. $foo{+bar} 
              vs. $foo{bar()}
              vs. $foo{"+bar"} 
              vs. $foo{"bar()"}

and they never cause any problems?

Although I suppose if we make it harder for people to write buggy 
Perl, there's less of a market for debugging books. :)
