I don't think that it's a good idea to introduce a left-to-right flow into a language, which strictly assigns righthand values by general design. The text mentions a back-and-forth in reading, this introduces a back-and-forth intellectually. (There's already a limited left to right capability, namely by chaining expressions using logical operators, especially when used outside of condition. It should be mentioned, however, that this is already confusing to some.)
