Upvoted to compensate down-votes. While this is an opinion that tends to be repeated in APL threads and can seem ignorant. It it also the initial reaction many of us have had.

Presenting it with a reasonable follow up question like this gives a perfect opportunity to provide examples of it being used and the reasoning behind why it might not be as terrible as it might seem at first.

Down-voting such comments only discourages conversation IMO, what about giving a good answer instead. (or in this case, just link to arcfide and his interesting explanations about how he uses Dyalog to be productive.)
