Hello Roger;
Point taken. In fact, my attempt at reworking:
13 : ',x. i. y.'
[: , i.
doesn't apply because
(,x) {iota} y <=> , x {iota} y
is an identity that only works in APL.
Moral: {iota} is not i.

Because it is not the same verb. , i. ] is
equivalent to (x,y) i. y . In fact:
13 : '(x,y) i. y'
, i. ]
