Am I missing something or is Recto still inherently linear? Flow control still goes one direction through the rectangles, where as the other 2D languages he points out, Befunge, Fish, and Piet, flow control can change directions. In later versions of Befunge it isn't even limited to 2D or moving in cardinal directions.

When you consider what truly defines a language in the modern world, only two criteria stand out:
- Understandable — it must carry meaning for both humans and machines.
- Generable — it must be producible by both humans and machines.
Well, this fails on both counts. That syntax is awful even for the trivial examples provided.
imagine the diffs
