That too. Reminds me of pointers.

But to me, it does not *feel* in sync with the rest of the
ruby code. I think design should try to be minimalistic when
possible and not confusing, when possible.

I am going to think of an example of combining
  ->
with
  .map!(&:strip!)
and a regex just to show that Ruby can be uglier than Perl.
