I don't think it's intended to be a competition. The Lua
code is just the output produced by the MoonScript
compiler.

Personally I think it's an nice little language. Like
Metalua, I wouldn't use it for everything but it seems a
good fit for some coding styles and integrates well
enough with regular Lua to not be a burden.
