Sure, it would have been easy to name them that way, but it would have 
meant that I would have to do extra typing*, since those are 
used frequently. Euphoria's get() function, on the other hand, is something 
I rarely use. The last time I actually needed it in a real program was 
4 - 5 years ago. 

* I hate extra typing.
