FORTH [^] solved this dilemma ages ago, but, as Yogi Berra said: "Nobody goes there anymore. It’s too crowded."
Is a ghost of FORTH haunting .NET; you be the judge: [^]. [1]
i met "evangelical disciples" of the FORTH language/faith way back in CPM and first Apple daze; you asked questions: you got a recruitment pitch

Sounds like someone who doesn't really understand that domain specific languages are really no longer needed except in a very few situations. Real time programming is one of these, but even in this situation I've seen general purpose operating systems and languages configured to run in a real time environment, and do it successfully.

Tiny11 is the original Windows 11 version 22H2 stripped down to the very vitals. The mod requires only 8GB on a drive (stock Windows 11 chews more than 20GB), works on systems with 2GB of RAM, and does not need Trusted Platform Module or Secure Boot. "Day by day he shrinks! Science is baffled!"

Office creates hundreds of registry entries during installation and doesn't remove them during uninstallation.
