> It's totally out of place with the rest of the Swift programming language. They had to add new crap to the language to accommodate its declarative style, when Swift is (was) unapologetically imperative syntax-wise. It's an obvious bolt-on and leaves a really bad taste in my mouth.
Woah now, that's interesting! In my mind swift has had awesome support for functional programming paradigms since launch. I understand it to be leaning in about as far as it can given that it's built with first class support for Obj-c oriented frameworks.
What makes you feel like it's unapologetically imperative?
