That is not the way to look at a adding complexity to a basic Lisp construct. Every additional feature added to a fundamental construct increases the complexity of the Lisp language. That always has various kinds of cost whether it is used or not. Since this added feature would rarely be of use, it would have cost and no benefit. Please do not add this feature. -- Dr Richard Stallman (https://stallman.org) Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
