Well, it is a frequent question about an invasive change. And one
argument in favor of going through with it was that convert-ly actually
was able to convert a sizeable ratio of Scheme code automatically.
Since I spent considerable time getting convert-ly to do an
unprecedented amount of work, you can find me pointing to it frequently.
With this particular syntax change, "remove everything that looks like a
mistake" will tend to work as well, as someone else noted in a parallel
answer, and that actually was the motivation for the change.
