For this my hopes were for people to express specific examples of how
concatenative languages have been helpful for them developing
software, or understanding concepts.

Sorry for not being more specific.

Are you referring to the definition we worked on a few months ago on
the list? IIRC we had a few definitions floating around, and some
contention. Would you mind sharing your favourite one with me? I don't
neccessarily want the best one, just the one that best captures the
spirit of concatenative languages for you. Or perhaps just elaborate a
bit on what about concatenation of source text makes a language
concatenative? Feel free to send me private emails if you prefer.
