You may well be right. But the definition of "this Achilles heel"
varies all over the map. Revolution is not the best programming
language for all classes of problem. Those who choose not to see it
as a "real" programming language because of one perceived lack will
often just find another if that one's addressed. And another. I've
been through this with a dozen or more languages in my too-many-years
in this business.
All I'm saying is that rather than spending time and effort to
enhance or extend Revolution to solve a set of problems for which
another language might be better suited, I'd rather see RunRev work
hard to make it easier and easier and more stable for addressing the
problems for which it is the ideal solution. There are, I believe,
more than enough of those to make Rev successful for many years to come.
