Crosscut

As I was working on yesterday's note, I realized that there are other ways to format a tree of expressions using postfix syntax. I could also indent the children instead of the parent:

    argument
function

Maybe that would have been better? Or maybe not. I'm no longer interested in exploring these kinds of questions.

But this demonstrates another point I made: That switching to prefix syntax puts us into well-explored territory. While working on a language with postfix syntax that uses a different evaluation model than all other postfix languages (as far as I can tell) constantly requires these micro-decisions. Right now, there are better areas to invest my effort in.
