So you intend to significantly speed up the execution of your Lua code
through a prolific campaign of new syntax proposals? It's not a great
strategy to be honest, for various reasons, but for one thing:
everything is a tradeoff and the things that genuinely cause your code
to run faster, when properly benchmarked, are often surprising and
counterintuitive. Carefully investigating the bottlenecks in the
specific places that your code in particular spends most of its time
in might be a more productive way to get what you want.
