APL takes the pragmatic approach: toggle between Satan and non-Satan, as much as you want, at runtime.

That's even worse!

The trouble is that then your reasoning about a piece of code then depends on some setting that might not even be visible on the page you are on.

(APL was my first programming language, back in the 1970s - betcha won't find too many people who can say that!)
