Im curious, why wouldnt you call HPPL a programming language? What would you call it?

IMO it definitely is a Turing-complete programming language, but not one that lends itself to input on the machine on which a program written in that language is supposed to run. You're much better off writing a program using the connection kit (or writing it in your favourite text editor and copy/pasting it into the connection kit), using the virtual HP-Prime to debug it and then copying it to a physical HP-Prime.
