The goal here is to make all programs bindable,
and to optimize things a bit.
If I wanted to allow forward referencing I
could do it very easily in the interpreter.
I happen to believe that the lack of (easy)
forward referencing is ultimately good for your sanity
and the sanity of the person trying to understand
your code.
