- Not all programming languages have implemented exceptions.
- We plan to have exceptions in Euphoria.
I know. It's good that they are planned.

We have put a lot of effort in to ensuring that Euphoria is simple to use, by putting in a lot of under-the-hood complexity.
Well, before I mentioned it, your switch statement design hardly was "simple to use". It was just copied blindly from C. You put a lot of implementation effort in Eu, but I cannot see much design effort. I think it was one of the core developers who had never even heard of implicit fallthrough being bug prone. Maybe it's a good idea for some of the developers to do more programming language research. That's what I mean by design effort. Now go ahead and bowdlerise me.
