God forbid we have a useful feature that not everybody can use. God forbid people who don't know how to use something...oh, I don't know,
not use it.
I have at least one useful feature in mind where regular expressions would be invaluable, and I'm not the only one. So basically, we can **** off because there are a lot of idiots who want to script on Graal? Sounds reasonable.
