Well, I guess he meant that there's no need to add some logic to "fix" the
functionality. I also think he bases his argumentation on the fact that
apparently other languages behave incorrectly too, and uses Java as an
example. He also states that we could fix this minor thing when we don't
have anything else to do (my note: it could be written somewhere, so we
won't forget). Apart from all the other nuances I'm not able to capture to
my translation, I'm hopelessly lost at the few last lines.

Should we start to promote Ruby as a language of the least meta-surprises.
That is, the language which was designed not to surprise anyone of
surprises.

I guess.
