Uh? That's a quite different statement.
I do think it's good that languages are somewhat consistent. And if on
language A + is the addition operand, it doesn't become the division
one on a different one, or that you don't write 'if' to produce a loop.
I think that's what is being termed as counterintuitive here. If every
languages would have to be the same as every other, then they wouldn't
be different ones.
