    Exactly! Making a DSL and using it like a programming language introduces necessities that will not be considered as throughly if they where added to a “real” language.

    I once wanted a DSL for a calendar program I was making (so the user could define complex events and stuff). So I made a simple programming language that could be embedded in the program, kinda like how lua is commonly used.
