Well, Matz told us a the Euruko conference that this wasn窶冲 his language anymore but the community's. He told us, he created it but it was our responsibility as a community to keep it growing and changing. You mentioned before this was requested uncountable times. If a language which claims to be for the programmer's joy isn窶冲 able to simply alias one method requested uncountable times I don窶冲 see how can I justify this better than with uncountable language users votes. Isn窶冲 that far more than enough?
