Yea, I probably need to take an anger management class.
I'm pretty sure it was the lack of an answer to "what good is a flat
AST?" that set me off.
So much so that I've lowered my estimate of its usefulness from 1% down
to 0%.
The "Trust me, I translate from one non-trivial language to another
without needing an AST,
but I wont give any details at all" thread from someone else is really
bugging me, too.
