To (1), be careful: too much generality could have severe performance

Hypothetically speaking, it would be possible to implement J with

For that matter, we could design the interpreter to treat its
executable as an archive (like maybe a zip file) with some !: command
to execute a named element from the archive as a script. Once we have
that, it becomes straightforward to do a variety of things with J...
