You have a point. I think the statement is correct anyway when adding
"programmer level" between "of" and "loops".

I did not have the opportunity to delve into Eupphoria's internals, so I
take your word at face value. Only the explicit branching treatment is
limited, and there may be a lot of things underwater.

By the way, is not "structuredness" a large part of robustness?
