 I'd like to propose that certain special names should be protected so that
 they could not become variable names (for example pi, e, and i)

 if by accident you assign them like:

 e=factorial(10)

 and then you need to need to use e with it's standard meaning, like

 e^100

 you will have a very hard to spot error ( (factorial(10)^100).
