I'm a bit skeptical that any such difference actually exists. Both the
short and long forms should map to the exact same compiled code.
Theoretically the long form would take longer to parse / compile the
first time, but we're talking about the parsing of individual
characters -- something that would have immeasurably small impact.
When I run the benchmark, the faster method seems to depend on a
combination of which one appears first in the script and/or the
direction of the wind, and doesn't appear to be repeatable.
I'd thought about that, but when I switched the order I got the same
results.
So I considered making a new test which swaps the order on the fly, but
I'm with you: the possible difference of 0.00002 ms isn't worth the
trouble.
