this is not because people were not using a decent syntax to fileout and that after they hacked the system that this is not a bug. If you save a method and once it is saved you cannot load it back then what is the point to save it. Seriously this is not the same than with double quote. Else it means that you cannot/should not use $! in Smalltalk method. And I read most of the spec and books on smalltalk and nobody ever mentioned that. Here this is just that this is doing the wrong behavior. Imagine that we save the code using the coral syntax then what we would not use [] anymore in method?
