I guess that's great if you build IKEA furniture for a living.
I'm doing that only about once a year and don't remember all the subtleties of the DSL. Just a week ago I got caught by something which was differentiated by 2 different shades of gray which I unfortunately did not notice the first time around.
This point applies to computer DSLs as well - if your users don't write your DSL at least monthly, then the DSL might be more trouble than it's worth.
