Crosscut

Maybe I could work around the problem with automatic lifting. Come up with some solution that works well enough, and makes the whole thing worth it on balance. But I think that would not be wise.

In a recent conversation, my unofficial language design consultant Adrian reminded me about innovation tokens. I have not been spending mine wisely. I'm basically in innovation debt. But only one innovation is truly important to the project's goals: The interactive core that enables fine-grained hot reloading.

I think it's time to take a step back and return to more proven concepts in other areas. Especially if it has become clear, that the unproven concept I was considering does not deliver the clear advantage that I thought it would. As is the case here. So as of now, I'm no longer considering to include automatic lifting in Crosscut.
