Of course you can "just" modify Function.prototype.toString as well. And so on.

Someone who wants APL2 but not to pay anyone for it uses GNU APL: they just aren’t that far away from each other. Maybe it’s worth closing the gap, but who pays for that? APL2 has already been paid for, so it’s hard for a company to pay for

> This can be detected easily using > navigator.credentials.create.toString() != "function () { [native code] }" Are you sure? If I can replace navigator.credentials.create then surely I can replace its toString as well.

We have to file taxes in the US, and the US has tax treaties with many countries that allow the US citizen to simply make up the difference in the US. This means if you are in a country with a high tax rate, you won't have to pay any

That's a harder question. Why do other people do the things they do? One reason might be because it was convenient for them to write (and debug) things that way. But it is possible they are doing it for performance reasons, so maybe

Yes! You could also do: ⌽'*',⊂⊃K to save another character. I don't know if that's "better" though.

I'm not sure getting the wrong answer fast is something to be proud of. Your rust code has a bug in it, is longer, and you spent more time on it.
