I'll briefly mention that Gregg references Ladislav's BUILD when presenting his own builder dialect, that he calls INJECT:
https://gist.github.com/greggirwin/29836d25de0c68eaba0e6dbd268a20f5
>> a: [block a] >> inject [[only a (f: fail) | (f: none)] f] == [[[block a] (f: fail) | (f: none)] f] >> inject [[insert a (f: fail) | (f: none)] f] == [[block a (f: fail) | (f: none)] f] >> inject [insert/only] ; paths need not be escaped == [insert/only] >> inject [only [insert only]] ; to escape a whole subblock == [[insert only]] >> inject [insert [(insert only)]] ; to escape a whole paren! == [(insert only)]
The less said about this, the better, but...
This makes me furious.
I'm not furious that it was made. It was posted in May 2020 (and prior to being ported to Red, originated far earlier than that...Ladislav's BUILD script is dated 20 years ago). The first inklings of isotopes didn't happen until November 2020. SPLICE! antiforms weren't a done deal until the full death of /ONLY in July 2022.
So nothing wrong with brainstorming about INJECT in 2020, or even 2022. That's generally fine (albeit there's a real lack of "something is fundamentally wrong, here" awareness--the kind of awareness that simmered and percolated among Ren-C thinkers to birth the isotopic model.)
What makes me furious about it is that the answers in Ren-C have been established art now for more than three years.
And yet somehow Red developers...here--in 2025--can somehow still think epicycles of this trash are a better answer, and keep going that route.
It's willful ignorance. Pure and simple.
