    In this case, it probably is “Domain Specific Language”. If you’re unfamiliar, that means it’s created for a very specific context, unlike other, more general languages. That means you can keep the set of features small and save a lot of time making complex stuff work that isn’t relevant to that context.

    Loops are complex stuff. If you don’t really need them, you’re better off just keeping your language linear.

    On the other hand, they’re neat. Can’t be that bad, can it?
