(statement "the funniest experience I've had wrt that is that, my carry-on was over 7kg so I just moved as much stuff as I can into my backpack and the check-in agent let me through even though the weight is for a personal item and a carry-on combined")

(statement "it's probably fine though, since everything I output is supposed to be treated as an input to another interpreter/compiler, whether human or machine")
v20
(statement "my original reason for trying to make it symmetric is that people complained only I got to use my output syntax and everyone else had to use a different one")
