       This is a bit silly, but I'm wondering if you are reconstructing
       QUUX's quote accurately. The quote I can find (from
       format-colon-uparrow-scope), is ``Absolutely none.  We're talking
       about FORMAT here.'' -- Guy L. Steele Jr. In any case, the proposal
       is to change WITH-OPEN-STRING, not FORMAT. I'd be happier if it said
       that this was a minor improvement to the aesthetics of the language
       because it made it more consistent.

   I agree with your last sentence, also I think the Steele quotation was never
   relevant to this issue.

"Relevance:  Absolutely none.  We're talking about Steele here."
